Radio Frequency Section 

The OG2 modem includes: 

 

A VHF Receiver Section which performs RF filtering, frequency conversion and demodulation. 

 

A  VHF  Transmitter  Section  which  performs  modulation,  frequency  conversion  and  power 
amplification. 

 

A  Processing  Section  that  monitors  and  controls  optional  I/Os,  handles  the  RF  and  serial 
interface.
