RX IF COILS ALIGNMENT
Connect the RF Signal Generator to the ANT jack,
and connect the AF millivoltmeter to the EXT SP
jack.
Tune the radio to 19.900 MHz, CW mode.
Inject a 19.900 MHz signal from the RF Signal
Generator, then adjust the RF Signal Generator
output level to 0 dB.
Adjust T1012 on the MAIN Unit for maximum
indication on the AF millivoltmeter.
Transmitter Alignment
TX IF COILS ALIGNMENT
Connect the 50 Ohm Dummy Load to the ANT
jack.
Remove the coaxial plug from J1002 on the MAIN
Unit, then connect the RF millivoltmeter and 50
Ohm resistor to J1002.
Connect the AF Generator to pin 4 of the MIC
jack.
Tune the radio to 7.500 MHz, USB mode.
Inject a 0.5 mVrms @1000 Hz audio signal from
the AF Generator.
Key the transmitter (connect pin 3 of the MIC
jack to GND), then adjust T1008, T1009, T1010,
and T1011 on the MAIN Unit in succession sev-
eral times for maximum indication on the RF
