The 547 has a five-stage BJT vertical amplifier that is fully differential from the plug-in
connector to the CRT vertical deflection plates. There is one tube in the vertical signal path,

There is one tube in the vertical signal path,
a [[12AT7]] acting as a unity-gain buffer between the plug-in connector and the vertical amplifier.
a [[12AT7]] acting as a unity-gain buffer between the plug-in connector and the vertical amplifier.
The plug-in bay of the 547 has a "spoiler switch" that only enables the full bandwidth of the 547's
vertical signal path when certain relatively modern plug-ins are used,
such as the [[1A1]], [[1A2]], [[1A4]], [[1L30]], and [[1L40]].
Those plug-ins have a small hole to the left of the plug-in to mainframe connector,
so they can be fully inserted without pressing the spoiler switch.


There is a 170 nanosecond [[delay line]] between the first and second gain stages.
