TX IF Coils Alignment

r

 

Remove the coaxial plug from J1004 on the MAIN Unit, then connect the RF millivoltmeter and

50 

 resistor to J1004.

r

 

Connect the AF Generator to pin 4 of the MIC jack.

r

 

Select the 

TX IF

 channel (10.25000 MHz, USB).

r

 

Inject a signal from the AF Generator to 1500 Hz, then adjust the AF Generator output level so

that the RF millivoltmeter reading is approximately 0 dBm.

r

 

Key the transmitter (connect pin 5 of the MIC jack to GND), adjust T1010, T1018, T1019,

T1020, and T1022 on the MAIN Unit in succession several times for maximum indication on the
RF millivoltmeter.

r

 

Disconnect the RF millivoltmeter, and replace the plug into J1004.

 
 

MIC Gain Alignment

r

 

Connect the AF millivoltmeter to TP1003 on the MAIN Unit.

r

 

Connect the AF Generator to pin 4 of the MIC jack.

r

 

Select the 

TX IF

 channel (10.25000 MHz, USB).

r

 

Inject a signal from the AF Generator to 1500 Hz, then adjust the AF Generator output level for

8 mV.

r

 

Key the transmitter (connect pin 5 of the MIC jack to GND), adjust VR1001 on the MAIN Unit

for 30 mV 

±

 3 mV on the RF millivoltmeter.

 
 

Carrier Balance Pre-Alignment

r

 

Remove the coaxial plug from J1004 on the MAIN Unit, then connect the RF millivoltmeter and

50 

 resistor to J1004.

r

 

Select the 

TX IF

 channel (10.25000 MHz, USB).

r

 

Key the transmitter (connect pin 5 of the MIC jack to GND) with no microphone input, adjust

TC1002 and VR1003 on the MAIN Unit for minimum indication on the RF millivoltmeter.

r

 

Disconnect the RF millivoltmeter, and replace the plug into J1004.

 
 

Driver Section Idling Current Alignment

Key the transmitter (connect pin 5 of the MIC jack to GND) with no microphone input, adjust

VR3501 on the PA Unit for 50 mA 

±

 5 mA on the DC Ammeter.

r

 

Disconnect the DC Ammeter, and replace the Short-plug into J3505.

 
 

Final Section Idling Current Alignment

r

 

Remove the Solder jumper from JP3501 on the PA Unit, and connect the DC Ammeter to J3506

(pin 1: 

“–”

 lead, pin 2: 

+

 lead) on the PA Unit.

r

 

Select the 

TX IF

 channel (10.25000 MHz, USB).

r

 

Key the transmitter (connect pin 5 of the MIC jack to GND) with no microphone input, adjust

VR3502 on the PA Unit for 100 mA 

±

 10 mA on the DC Ammeter.

r

 

Disconnect the DC Ammeter, and connect JP3501 by solder jumper.

 
 

CM Coupler Balance

r

 

Connect the 50

 Dummy Load and Inline Wattmeter to the ANT jack, then connect the AF

Generator to pin 4 of the MIC jack, and adjust the AF Generator to 1500 Hz.

r

 

Connect the DC voltmeter to pin 3 of JP3003 (

+

 lead, 

“–”

 lead: GND) on the CNTL Unit.

r

 

Select the 

CM BAL

 channel (29.9000 MHz, USB).

r
