(These must be NOS) This is the postwar version of Panoramic's "Panoramoscope." The PCA-2T200 panadaptor was manufactured by the Panoramic Radio Corporation of New York City. Its 2-inch scope displayed signals in a bandwidth of up to 200 kHz when connected to a receiver having an IF between 450 and 470 kHz. It could also be used to check the characteristics of just one AM, FM, or CW signal. It used 10 tubes and had an internal power supply. References Brief description. Radio News, Jul 1946, p. 78.
