Select test channel 28.
Unplug the coaxial cable between the PA PCB and the RF/IF PCB in the RF unit.
Connect a spectrum analyser to the Tx test point on the RF/IF PCB.
Set up the spectrum analyser as follows:
Centre frequency
Frequency span
Vertical level
Trigger
Video bandwidth
Using the transceiver test unit, apply an audio signal of 1 kHz at a level of
300 mV p–p to:
• the audio input on the 15-way GPIO connector on the junction box or 2012 RF
Unit (see Figure 40 on page
• the 2011 RF Unit via the NGT test handset (see
Hold down PTT.
Adjust the 24.9 MHz signal displayed on the spectrum analyser to the top of the
screen.
Reset the spectrum analyser centre frequency to 20.1 MHz.
Adjust R138 for a minimum 20.1 MHz signal.
The unwanted 20.1 MHz product should be greater that 60 dB below the 24.9 MHz
signal.
