Transceiver Board
The transceiver (XCVR) board performs the transmitter and receiver functions necessary to translate
between voice and data from the VOCON board and the modulated radio-frequency (RF) carrier at
the antenna. The transceiver board contains all the radio's RF circuits for the following major
components:
• Receiver
• Transmitter
• Frequency Generation Unit (FGU)
