Abstract
A setup for measuring the degree of modulation of a light beam from a light modulator or an artificial source of modulated light is described. A technique for checking the setup with a Kerr cell is discussed, and the results of the measurements of the degree of modulation of a neon lamp fed with a 4-Mc voltage are given.
