Level Control Figure 1 - UR190 Receiver Block Diagram The UR190 receiver is comprised of six major functional subsystems: the RF front-end amplifier, the double balanced mixer/local oscillator, the first IF filter, the second IF filter and audio demodulator, the compandor, and the balanced microphone level output circuit.

The Dual Band Compandor is driven by a multiple pole active low-pass filter. The filter ensures that supersonic noise will not cause the compandor to increase gain incorrectly. This filter also drives the -20dB and 0dB modulation LEDs. Traditionally, compandors have been a source of distortion in wireless microphone systems. The basic problem with conventional systems is that the attack and decay times are always a compromise.
CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS RECEIVER FRONT PANEL MODULATION LEDs Indicate the modulation (audio level) of the incoming signal, and can be used for proper adjustment of the transmitter’s "MIC LEVEL" or "GAIN". The -20 LED glows when the transmitter modulation is at a high enough level to produce a good audio signal-to-noise ratio.

ANTENNA JACK Connects to any 50 ohm antenna with a BNC type connector (a flexible "rubber duckie" antenna is supplied). The A-185 Coax remote type antenna may also be used. 50 dBV MODULATION OUTPUT POWER Figure 2 - UR190 Front Panel...
Connects to the supplied CH-12 AC adapter for powering the receiver from a 110/120V AC source. The receiver may also be powered from external 12 volt DC sources using the correct plug (Switchcraft S-760 power plug). A diode bridge is used in the external power input, so that the UR190 will operate properly from either polarity.
ANTENNA USE AND PLACEMENT Connect the antenna to the front panel jack. Position the antenna so that it is not within 3 or 4 feet of large metal surfaces. If this is not possible, try to position the antenna so that it is as far away from the metal surface as is practical.
If the output is too low, you may hear steady noise (hiss) along with the audio. The UR190 output was designed to drive microphone level inputs. The output signal level ranges from -50dBV with the output control fully counter clockwise to -20dBV with the output control fully clockwise when the transmitter signal is at full modulation.
