Aline the rear panel so the DC
connector is in the centre of the
power hole in the rear panel,
carefully solder the centre pin of
the PA transistor and recheck
the correct fitting of the panel,
resolder that transistor pin if
you need to make adjustments.
Once happy solder the
remaining two pins of the
transistor and trim the leads.
Tighten the BNC and the
transistor screw.
Stage 12: TX/RX LED
The Rooster has a LED indicator for RX and TX, we have used a dual colour LED so on RX it is Green
and on TX its Red.
This LED has three legs, each one is a different length.
When we fit this part, the shortest leg MUST be
towards the centre of the board.
You need to bend the legs at
approx. 13mm from the back edge
of the LED’s
body. You want to
produce a 90-degree bend. I use a
pair of pliers to hold the 3 legs and make the bend. You must make sure that
you bend it the right way so that when fitted the shortest leg is towards the
centre of the board.
Temporarily attach the front panel loosely to
the board using the RIT controls nut. Put the
LED in the board (again checking the shortest
pin is towards the boards centre). Then make
sure the led passes through its hole in the
panel. Now you have it at the correct height
solder its legs and after double checking all is
correct trim the leads flush. Now remove the
front panel.
