TM-471A

Frequency Configuration
The receiver utilizes double conversion. The first IF is
49.95MHz and the second IF is 450kHz. The first local oscil-
lator signal is supplied from the PLL circuit.
The PLL circuit in the transmitter generates the necessary
frequencies. Figure 1 shows the frequencies.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Receiver System
The receiver is double conversion superheterodyne. The
frequency configuration is shown in Figure 1.
■
Front-end RF Amplifier
An incoming signal from the antenna is applied to an RF
amplifier (Q353) after passing through a transmit/receive
switch circuit (D603, D604 and D605 are off) and a BPF
(L359, L358 L360, L361 and varactor diodes : D353, D354,
D355). After the signal is amplified (Q353), the signal is fil-
tered by a BPF (L354, L355 and varactor diodes: D351, D352)
to eliminate unwanted signals before it is passed to the first
mixer.
The voltage of these diodes are controlled by tracking the
CPU (IC101) center frequency of the band pass filter. (See
Fig. 2.)
■
First Mixer
The signal from the RF amplifier is heterodyned with the
first local oscillator signal from the PLL frequency synthesizer
circuit at the first mixer (Q352) to create a 49.95MHz first
intermediate frequency (1st IF) signal. The first IF signal is
then fed through one pair of monolithic crystal filter (MCF :
XF351) to further remove spurious signals.

IF Amplifier
The first IF signal is amplified by Q351, and then goes to
IC301 (FM processing IC). The signal is heterodyned again
with a second local oscillator signal within IC301 to create a
450kHz second IF signal. The second IF signal is then fed
through a 450kHz ceramic filter (Wide : CF301, Narrow :
CF302) to further eliminate unwanted signals before it is am-
plified and FM detected in IC301.
