3. Apply the required input power via an adapter cable. For this application, non 'N' type
connectors are acceptable.

4. With the applied control voltage drive initially at 0 V, slowly increase the voltage until power
out equals 28 Watts. Power should rise smoothly with control voltage once the turn-on
threshold is reached. Control voltage drive should not exceed 9.2 V.
5. If 9.2 V does not produce 28 Watts, then a failure exists in the power amplifier circuit.
6. Refer to the voltage chart (see
within the limits shown in the chart, then a failure exists in the PA assembly.
7. If the voltages in the chart are correct, verify that the injection is at least 10 mW. (See the
VCO troubleshooting section.)
8. If no failure is located from the previous checks, troubleshoot the power control circuitry.
