3. PLL Frequency Synthesizer
The frequency synthesizer consists of VCO, TCXO (X1501),
and the custom IC Q1522 (RODINIA).
The output frequency from TCXO is 19.2 MHz and the toler-
ance is ±1.5 ppm in the temperature range –22 °F to +140 °F
(–30 °C to +60 °C).

While the radio is receiving, the RX oscillator Q1506
(2SK508) generates a programmed frequency between 352.15
and 419.15 MHz (Type "G6") or 399.15 and 469.15 MHz
(Type "G7") as 1st local signal.
While the radio is transmitting, the TX oscillator Q1505
(2SC5006) generates a frequency between 403-470 MHz
(Type "G6") or 450-520 MHz (Type "G7").
The output from oscillator is amplified by buffer amplifier
Q1510 (2SC5006) and then is divided, one is fed back to the
PLL Circuit in the custom IC Q1522 (RODINIA). The other
one is supplied to the 1st mixer Q1523 (3SK293) through the
buffer amplifier Q1524 (2SC5005) in case of the reception. In
the transmission, the output is modulated to the FM (or digi-
tal) in the custom IC Q1522 (RODINIA), and then supplied
to the transmitter section described previously.

The tuning voltage (VCV) of the VCO establishes the lock
range of VCO by controlling the cathode of varactor diode
(D1502 (1SV279), D1504 (Type "G6": 1SV282, Type "G7":
1SV279), D1507 (1SV279), and D1508 (Type "G6": 1SV282,
Type "G7": 1SV279) for receiving, and D1501 (1SV279),
D1503 (Type "G6": 1SV282, Type "G7": 1SV279), D1505
