SECTION I DESCRIPTION OF CRYSTAL TEST SET TS-314/FSM-l ' 1. GENERAL. Crystal Test Set TS-314/FSM-1 (Ray Jefferson Activity and Fre quency Test Unit AF-30) is an instrument designed for checking the activity and frequency of quartz crystals either for duplication purposes or for final test. It is an alternating-current (a-c) operated instrument, mainly used in grinding crystal blanks to the frequency of a standard crystal and for checking the activity of these new crystals. Adjustments are provided for measuring the frequency of the crystals over the range of 2,000 to 10,000 kilocycles (kc). Activity is checked by means of a meter inserted in the grid circuit of the crystal oscillator while frequency is checked aurally by means of headphones, and visually by means of a frequency meter.
