Release PTT.
Check that the two-tone waveform is clean and undistorted.
If it is not clean and undistorted, further analysis is required.

If the PCB issue status is -04 or earlier, see drawing
The transceiver does not have to be in Service mode to make this
adjustment.
The output power is factory-set, so it is not likely to be outside the
specified limits. Check that there are no faults with the transmitter circuits
before attempting to adjust the output power.
Select any channel frequency between 4 and 6 MHz.
Connect an average or PEP power meter with a 50 Ω dummy load to the RF
connector ( ).
Connect an oscilloscope via a 47 kΩ resistor to the antenna connector.
Set the oscilloscope timebase to 500 µs per division and the trigger to auto.
Connect a signal generator to provide two-tone audio (700 Hz and 2300 Hz) via the
test unit 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, then adjust the two-tone level for compression.
Adjust the Y sensitivity of the oscilloscope for on-screen display and adjust the
trigger for a stationary waveform.
Adjust the two-tone balance control for good crossover display.
