7.2 Tune-up Information
The 430B transmitter was aligned at the factory and should not require additional
alignments to achieve normal operation.
This transmitter operates using the baseband audio and video inputs or, if the (optional)
4.5-MHz composite input kit is purchased, either a single composite video + 4.5-MHz
input or separate baseband video and audio inputs.
Check that the RF output at J2 of (A9-A5) the coupler is terminated into a dummy load of
at least 500 watts. While performing the alignment, refer to the Test Data Sheet for the
transmitter and compare the final readings from the factory with the readings on each of
the trays. They should be very similar. If a reading is off by a significant amount, the
problem is likely to be in that tray.
