wire board runs to separate from the board. Check for shorts and solder bridges before applying power.
CAUTION
Failure to solder the transistor leads as directed may result in the generation of RF loops that could damage the transistor or may cause low power output.
RECEIVER ALIGNMENT
Alignment of the Front End and Local Injection circuits are not required because
TEST EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
∙Distortion Analyzer∗
∙AC Voltmeter∗
∙RF Signal Generator∗
∙Frequency Counter
∙
∙Audio Isolation Transformer (1:1) 19A116736P1 or equivalent **
∗These four items can be replaced with a Service Monitor HP8920A or its equivalent.
**See Figure 4. This is not needed if instrument input is unbalanced with respect to ground.
NOTE
Before aligning the receiver or making any adjustments to the radio, be sure that the outputs of the 9 Volt Regulators IC230, IC503, and IC481 are 9.0 ±0.2 VDC.
ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
Receiver Frequency Adjustment
No receiver frequency adjustment is required.
2nd Receiver Oscillator
Using a frequency counter to monitor Terminal TP5, set L521 for a frequency of 44.645 MHz ±200 Hz.
IF/FM Detector Alignment
Apply a 1000 microvolt,
Connect a
Adjust the VOLUME control for 15 watts output (7.75 VRMS) using the Distortion Analyzer as a voltmeter.
Set the output signal level of the RF signal generator so as to obtain 12 dB SINAD at the audio output.
Adjust coils L502, L504, L505, and L507 to obtain minimum 12 dB SINAD.
Set the output signal level of the RF generator to 1000 microvolts.
Adjust L523 for maximum audio output.
Adjust RV501 for XTONEDEC output at ORCC to
500 mVRMS.
