TX AM Modulation (Hi) Adjustment
Connect the Radio Tester to the antenna jack, then
adjust the AF generator output level for injection of
200 mV rms @ 1 kHz to the MIC jack.
Set the transceiver to 128.000 MHz and turn the trans-
ceiver off.
Press and hold in the PTT switch, MONITOR switch,
and key while turning the transceiver on to enter
the alignment mode.
Rotate the DIAL selector knob to select "AM MOD Hi
xxx."
Press the PTT switch, and confirm that the modula-
tion level is 85 % modulation (±5 %).
If not:
1. Press the key momentarily;
2. Rotate the DIAL selector knob clockwise (increases the
MIC gain) or counter-clockwise (decreases the MIC
gain);
3. Press and hold the
4. Confirm the modulation level.
Repeat steps 1 - 4, as necessary, until you achieve the
specified 85 % modulation level (±5 %).
Turn the transceiver off.
TX AM Modulation (Low) Adjustment
Connect the Radio Tester to the antenna jack, then
adjust the AF generator output level for injection of
200 mV rms @ 1 kHz to the MIC jack.
Set the transceiver to 128.000 MHz and turn the trans-
ceiver off.
Reduce the power supply voltage to 4.8 V.
Press and hold in the PTT switch, MONITOR switch,
and key while turning the transceiver on to enter
the alignment mode.
Rotate the DIAL selector knob to select "AM MOD Lo
xxx."
Press the PTT switch, and confirm that the modula-
tion level is 85 % modulation (±5 %).
If not:
1. Press the key momentarily;
2. Rotate the DIAL selector knob clockwise (increases the
MIC gain) or counter-clockwise (decreases the MIC
gain);
3. Press and hold the
4. Confirm the modulation level.
Repeat steps 1 - 4, as necessary, until you achieve the
specified 85 % modulation level (±5 %).
Return the power supply voltage to 7.4 V.
Turn the transceiver off.
