INSTALTATION
This receiver is shipped complete with the necessary
ac-
cessories
for mobile or table use. As a fixed receiver in areas
of fair-to-good signal strength, the telescoping whip antenna
supplied.may be usedon all bands.
If an outside antenna is necessary
for fringe reception, you
may usea l55mHz antennaon all bands,a 40mHz antenna
for
L and H bands or a 460mHz antenna on U band only. Exter-
nal antennas should be coupled to the receiver by 50 ohm
coaxial cable, such as RG-58 A/U, using the supplied auto-
motive type connector. Suitable antennas are available at
most radio dealers.
INSTRUCTIONS
The BC-4has
highnoiseimmunity because
of the noise
squelchsystem. However,
the noise
generated
by the auto
electrical
systemand other parts of the car is sometimesa
problem,particularly
in areasof low signal
strength.The
sub-
ject of noiseelimination
is too lengthy
to dealwith adequate-
ly in thisinstruction
book.
It is recommendedfor thosewho wishto become
familiar
with the subject to purchase"The Radio Amateur's Hand-
book" or "The Mobile Manual" published
by the American
Radio Relayl,eagueand sold by most electronicpartsstores.
It is further recommended
that the vehiclebe taken to a ser-
vice center which specializes
in VHF-UHF two way radio
communicationsequipmentfor correction
of anoise
problem.
MOBILE INSTALLATION
This receiver may be installed in any car, truck, boat, etc.,
having
a 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND SYSTEM.
[n some areas it is illegal for unauthorized persons to
receivepolice communications on a mobile receiver. The user
of this radio is responsiblefor obtaining any necessary
author-
ization through local agenciesand Electra Company cannot
he responsible
for any illegalinstallation or usage.
l. Placethe mobile mounting bracket under.the dash
to
hold the receiverin the desiredposition.
Mark and drill two holes
using
a 7164drill bit and
secure
the bracketwith the two No. 6 self-tapping
screws.
3. Insert the two plastic "T" washers, flanges turned
inward, in the desired pair of mounting holes and
securethe receiverin place with the twoIl4-20bolts
and two ll4" lD x 9l16" OD flat washers.
4. Attach the DC power cable and connect it to the
"acccssory" or "radio" terminal on the fuse block.
5. External mobile antennas may be used as described
above. The autornotive antenna may be used fully
extended for L or H bands. It should be reduced
to
approximately lB" for U bands.
OPERATION
Mth the powercableandantennaproperlyconnected,
turn the receiverON by rotating the "VO[,UME"
controlclockwise.
Place
the B channelswitchesin the up (ON) position.
Set the "MANUAL-SCAN" switch on "MANUA[,".
Adjust the "SQUELCH" control clockwiseuntil the
rushing
noiseis heard. Then adjustthe "SQUE[,CH"
control counterclockwiseuntil the rushingnoise dis-
apPears.
Press
the "MANUA[,-SCAN" switch downward and
continue to step through all channels. If the noise
should "break the squelch" on any channel,adjust
the squelch control counterclockwise
again slightly
to quiet the receiver. THIS MUST BE DONE BE-
TWEENSTATION TRANSMISSIONS.
The "MANUAL-SCAN" switch may now be used
to selectandmonitoranydesiredcl"rannel.
To sample
all channels
automatically,returnthe"MAN-
UAL-SCAN" switch to "SCAN". Any channelmay
beomittedasdesiredby moving

OFF WHILE INSTALLING CRYSTALS
To remove the cabinet, first remove the screw at the bot-
tom rear edge. Push the rear panel forward through the cab-
inet. The components and crystal socketsarein full view and
easilyaccessible.
Up to eight crystals may be installed in any combination
of L, H, or U/T bands. Each crystal is installed in the sockets
corresponding to its channel. (Channel I is nearest
the sideof
the radio)
The eight three-position slide switches select the desired
band for each crystal. To select "Lo" Band (30-50mHz) for
a particular channel, placethe corresponding switch in the "L"
position. (Nearest the front of the radio). The center or "H"
position of the switch selects
"Hi" Band (150-l74mHz) and
the third or o'U/T" position is used for both "U" (450-470
mHz) andooT"(470-5l2mHz) bands.

USER HINTS
Radio equipmentusuallyoperates
in an environment
of
man-made
electro-magnetic
noisewhich radiatesfrom power
lines,fluorescent
lights,motors,appliances,
ignition systems,
etc. Modernradios
are
designed
to minimize
interference
from
suchsources
but operation
may beaffected
underconditions
of unusually
strong
noise.
Distant weak,".hp" or noise
signals
may bereceivedby
this receiverbecauseof its high sensitiuity. Whenever
such
conditions
interrupt scanning
or whenevera
verybusy
channel
prevents reception of other desired signals,the affected
channel
may be bypassed
by means
of its individualpanel
switch.
ln casesof strong
interferingnoiseor signals
it may be
desirableto reduce
thelengthof theantennato reduce
noise
pickup below a critical level. This may be very effective
in
medium
and
strongsignal
areas.
-Single-channeloperation may be obtainedas described
under Operating
Instructions.It may also
be accomplished
with the"\IANUAL-SCAN" switch
in either
position
bylock-
ing out all but thedesiredchannel.Thisassuresthat theradio

ALIGNMENT
I-F SECTION
Nignment of the I-F system consistsof optimizing the input and output networks
and balancingthe detector output. The bandpassand center frequency are established
by quartz crystal filters and "peaking" the coils can result
in bandpassripple or poor sensi-
tivity. Field
alignment
shouldnot be
necessary
but theprocedure
isgiven
for generalinformation.

GENERAL
It is recommended that servicingof this receiverbe done
by the factory service
center. Specialequipment and skills are
maintained at the factory to give fast and efficient serviceon
all of our products.
When retuming radio receivers to the factory for service,
include crystals, ac and dc power cables and telescoping
antenna. Disconnect cables
and antenna,pack carefully and
include a trrief. detailed description of the difficulty you are
having.
The receiver circuitry is designed to utilize the best
feafures of four types of semiconductors: rectifier diodes,
conventional bi-polar transistors, insulated-gate field-effect
transistorsand integrated circuits. Servicing
should not be
attempted by anyone who is not familiar with the manu-
facturer's recommendationsand cautions relating to each of
these
devices. The useof ohmmeters
is particularly hazardous
since they can deliver voltagesand currents large enough to
damagesemiconductors.
Unusual circuitry in this receiver includes the automatic
tuning system. I.C. No.1 and the associated
circuits generate
tuning voltagesto track the antenna, r-f and oscillator circuits
as channelsare scanned. Also, when the receiver is operating
in the "L" band,
loadingcoil L-l isswitched
into the telescop-
ingantenna
circuit.
Audio output power is measuredwith bursls of modula-
tion or by measuring the maxirnum excursion on voice
modulation asshorn on an oscilloscope. S'hen a continuous
tone is received.the output rrill start at full porverand then
decreaseto approximatel,v
half power to protect the output
inteEated circuit from overload. It rrill then retum to full
power for voicecommunications.
The LED indicators have a forward voltage drop of about
l.6v at 20ma. The current shouldnot exceed50ma. They are
polarized and may be damaged by a high reverse voltage.
When a channellamp doesnot light, the failuremay beeither
the lamp or the switchingI.C. If the channeln'orks,check the
lampi if not, check the I.C. [hen groupsof lamps are out.
refer to the losic chart.
TRACKEDTUNING
SYSTEM
All tuned circuits in the RF sections
are tuned by voltage-
variable capacitators which optimize the radio for eachcrystal
individually regardlessof where it falls in any band. This tun-
ing is done automatically and allows the Bearcat IV to tune
all parts of any band without compromise.
Tracked tuning is accomplished by meansof a DC voltage
applied
to YVCI . 2.3,4,5.6. This
voltage
varies
with crystal
frequencv and is higher for higher frequency crystals. It isad-
justed
br Tl. T2. Rl7 and
R52.

the proper band for
eachchannel. Thesesn'itches,
the channelscanning

switches
QB, Qll, and Q13 generate
three l2\' bandswitch signals- U, U, and H. These
