3.2.2.1 VHF Transmit
Once a VHF frequency for transmit has been selected, the Trident IC and the accompanying logic
circuitry will enable the voltage controlled oscillator which then generates the desired transmit
frequency. This transmit signal is then routed to the TX buffer amplifier which amplifies the signal.
The signal is routed to the VHF Driver amplifier and then to the discrete final power amplifier. The
signal now goes through the antenna switch which routes the power to the harmonic filter which will
filter out the harmonics of the carrier signal and then passes through a directional coupler. The Log
Amp power detector Monitors the output of the directional coupler and adjusts the control voltages to
the driver amplifier and final power amplifier. Finally, the RF signal is routed to the main antenna.
