1. In an RF modulator, for converting video and audio signal inputs to modulated video and audio signal outputs, having a resonance element for generating a resonance signal of a given frequency, and a modulator circuit including a carrier oscillator connected to the resonance element for receiving the resonance signal and providing a carrier wave output, an RF amplifier connected to the carrier oscillator for amplifying the level of the carrier wave output, a video signal modulator connected to the RF amplifier for modulating the video signal input with the amplified carrier wave output to provide the modulated video signal output, and an audio signal mixer connected to the RF amplifier for mixing the amplified carrier wave output with a frequency modulated audio signal generated from the audio signal input to provide the modulated audio signal output,the improvement comprising a gain adjusting circuit connected to said RF amplifier for adjusting a gain of the RF amplifier to thereby adjust the level of the amplified carrier wave output provided by the RF amplifier if the resonance element is changed so as to have a different resonance signal characteristic.
