Abstract
We show the possibility of re-adjusting the self-modulation period in the variant of the backward wave oscillator with an external reflector by changing the position of the reflector. Thus, the possibility to partially control the generation spectrum is demonstrated. The theory is confirmed by the results of numerical modeling by the Particle-In-Cell method.
