Inject a 10 mV audio signal at 1 kHz to the MIC jack,
and disable the CTCSS encoder.
m
Key the transmitter, and adjust VR1002 for ±4.5 kHz
(±0.1 kHz) on the deviation meter.
m
Now adjust VR1003 for ±2.3 kHz (±0.1 kHz) on the de-
viation meter.
FM TX LO Offset Adjustment
m
With the 50 dB attenuator (or 50-
W
dummy load and
sampling coupler) and frequency counter connected to
the HF/50 MHz antenna jack, connect the AF generator
to the MIC jack.
m
Set the transceiver to 29.200 MHz, and select the FM-N
mode. Use Menu #26 to set the FM MIC gain to mini-
mum. Select “Alignment” menu item F-52 [FM TX
FREQ].
m
Key the transmitter, and adjust the main DIAL for
29.2000 MHz (±50 Hz) on the frequency counter.
TX and RX Carrier Point Adjustment
m
With the 50-
W
dummy load and inline wattmeter con-
nected to the HF/50 MHz antenna jack, connect the AF
generator to the MIC jack.
m
Set the transceiver to 14.2000 MHz, and select the LSB
mode. Select “Alignment” menu F-53 [TRX LSB CAR]
and preset it to “0” if it is not already set to that value.
m
Key the transmitter, and adjust the AF generator’s fre-
quency for maximum indication on the inline wattme-
ter. Then adjust the AF generator’s level for 80 W on the
inline wattmeter.
m
Set the AF generator’s frequency to 350 Hz.
m
Key the transmitter, and adjust the main DIAL for 20
W (i.e. –6 dB from 80 W) on the inline wattmeter.
m
Set the AF generator’s frequency to 2.1 kHz.
m
Key the transmitter, and confirm at least 20 W on the
inline wattmeter.
m
Leave the transceiver on 14.2000 MHz , and select the
USB mode. Select “Alignment” menu item F-54 [TRX
USB CAR], and preset it to “0” if it is not already set to
that value.
m
Key the transmitter, and adjust the AF generator’s fre-
quency for maximum indication on the inline wattme-
ter. Then adjust the AF generator’s level for 80 W on
the inline wattmeter.
m
Set the AF generator’s frequency to 350 Hz.
m
Key the transmitter, and adjust the main DIAL for 20
W on the inline wattmeter.
m
Set the AF generator’s frequency to 2.1 kHz.
m
Key the transmitter, and confirm at least 20 W on the
inline wattmeter.
BEEP Level
m
Set VR1004 for the position which provides the desired
“Beep” level.
