    STANDARD HORIZON, A DIVISION of Vertex Standard GX1250SA is a VHF/FM transceiver designed for use in the transmitter frequency range of 156.025 to 157.475 MHz and receiver frequency range of 156.050 to 163.275 MHz. The GX1250SA re- quires 13.8V for operation and has a switchable RF output power of 1 watt or 25 watts.
  • Page 4: Theory Of Operation

    2. THEORY OF OPERATION 2.1 Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) Refer to Figure 2-1. The Phase-locked loop (PLL) consists of VCO ZZ01, reference oscillator XP01, PLL IC QP02, and PLL loop filter QP04 and QP05. The microprocessor QL01 supplies the data, clock, and strobe signals determined by the operating frequency set by the UP/ DOWN keys.
