Power Amplifier Repair
Field replacement of the MOSFETs on the PAs should NOT be attempted. To repair a
PA requires an extensive amount of test equipment and expertise due to the tight
tolerances allowed for calibration of the test equipment setup and especially for phase
and gain of the PA.
As an additional consideration, please observe the following warning from the
MOSFET manufacturer regarding beryllium oxide.

Software Revision
Each of the controller boards contains its own software (actually firmware) and
therefore each controller has its own software Part number and revision letter. It is
possible to get the revision numbers from the Diagnostics Display Menu labeled,
“SOFTWARE REV.” To check the software revisions press [MORE, SOFTWARE,
REV]. This will bring up the screen shown in Figure 6-1. The Firmware part number is
printed on a label attached to the ICs on the individual controller boards. Before calling
Harris Technical Support personnel it is a good idea to get the software part number and
revisions for each of the controller boards.
