146-174 MHz VHF Theory Of Operation: VHF Frequency Generation Circuitry 5-5
Transmit modulation from the ASFICcmp (U451 pin 40) is applied to U201 pin 10 (MOD_IN). An 
electronic attenuator in the ASFICcmp adjusts overall transmitter deviation by varying the audio level 
applied to the synthesizer IC. Internally the audio is digitized by the Fractional-N synthesizer and 
applied to the loop divider to provide the low-port modulation. The audio is also routed through an 
internal...

5-6146-174 MHz VHF Theory Of Operation: VHF Frequency Generation Circuitry
One of the auxiliary outputs of the synthesizer IC (AUX3, U201 pin 2) provides the TRB signal which 
determines the operating mode of the VCO, either receive or transmit.

5.4.2 Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO)
The VCOBIC (U251), shown in Figure 5-5, in conjunction with the Fractional-N synthesizer (U201) 
generates RF in both the receive and the transmit modes of...

C267, and varactor D261. High-port audio modulation from the synthesizer IC is applied as 
VCO_MOD to varactor D262 which modulates the transmit VCO.

5.5 Keypad
The keypad block diagram is shown in Figure 5-6. Pressing a key creates two distinct voltages 
KEYPAD_ROW and KEYPAD_COL. These voltages are sent directly to the radio’s microprocessor 
on the main board. The microprocessor then interprets the...

Low Power
1. Low TX injectionCheck that RF level at jct. R100/
R101 per schematic.Check U251, L291-292, C290-
291.
2. Low gain in TX stage Verify dc voltage at Q100-E is ~1.3 V 
(VHF) or ~0.5 V (UHF).
Verify that RF level at U110-1 is 
approx. 1 V (VHF) or 1.6 V (UHF).Verify 5T voltage is correct.
