13 Technical specification

Performance figures relate to a typical production receiver and are not guaranteed levels.
Test signals:-
1. Receiver system
Dual conversion super heterodyne system with intermediate frequencies of 45MHz and 455kHz.
High dynamic range mixer using a DMOS lateral FET quad.
Tuning by single loop PLL / DDS system from a TCXO reference.
All receiver functions under microprocessor control.
2. Reception and Tuning
Tuning continuous from 0 to 32MHz in 2.655Hz steps (10.62Hz in AM and NFM modes).
Frequency settability from keypad to ± 1.4Hz.
Tuning rate from spin-wheel 1kHz per rev (4kHz in AM and NFM modes), increasing with rapid rotation.
Fast tuning mode increases rate by 256 times.
