Guest guest Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 It looks like the EMR GB-4000 Frequency generator is the top of the line. Does anyone know if this would be suitable with a Dan model EMEM 5a? I use the machine for extended time periods, so it really has to be compatible. This generator claims to run 8 frequencies at once...I am not sure how that is possible and I wonder what that would mean for the EMEM. The GB-4000 manual is located here and has technical specifications: http://www.gbgenerators.com/pdf/gbgenerators_brochure_gb4000_mopa_amplifier.pdf I would be grateful for any input...
