DC Supply Failure—Page 1
NOTE: Since the failure of a critical voltage supply might cause the radio to automatically power
down, supply voltages should first be probed with a multimeter. If all the board voltages
are absent, then the voltage test point should be retested using a rising-edge-triggered
oscilloscope. If the voltage is still absent, then another voltage should be tested using the
oscilloscope. If that voltage is present, then the original voltage supply in question is
defective and requires investigation of associated circuitry.
