1. GENERAL
The alignment procedures are intended to be performed after board assembly . The alignment
procedures are also used after replacing a component or module causing misalignment. The
alignment procedures should be followed in the sequence presented. Certain sections of the
radio must be aligned using subsections of the alignment procedure before the whole board can
be aligned.
This alignment procedure is written for a complete realignment. If only a subsection is required,
use only the initial settings required as outlined in the procedure for the subsection.
The comm board must be placed into a main chassis before alignment. Unless otherwise
specified, alignment should be performed with the input power supply set to 27.5
±
0.2 VDC.
