4-1 RECEIVER CIRCUITS
4-1-1 ANTENNA SWITCHING CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The antenna switching circuit functions as a low-pass filter
while receiving. However, its impedance becomes very high
while D8 and D9 are turned ON. Thus transmit signals are
blocked from entering the receiver circuits. The antenna
switching circuit employs a λ/4type diode switching system.
Received signals are passed through the low-pass filter
(L1–L3, L45, C3–C7, C210, C211). The filtered signals are
applied to the λ/4type antenna switching circuit (D8, D9).
The passed signals are then applied to the RF amplifier cir-
cuit.
4-1-2 RF CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The RF circuit amplifies signals within the range of frequen-
cy coverage and filters out-of-band signals.
The signals from the antenna switching circuit are
amplified at the RF amplifier (Q11) after passing
through the tunable bandpass filter (D13, L18, L70,
C58, C60). The amplified signals are applied to the
1st mixer circuit (Q12) after out-of-band signals are
suppressed at the another tunable bandpass filter
(D14–D16, D44, L22, L23, C70–C79).
Varactor diodes are employed at the bandpass filters
(D13–D16, D44) that track the filters and are controlled by
the CPU (LOGIC unit; IC1) via the expander IC (IC17) using
bandpass filter control voltages (T1–T4). These diodes tune
the center frequency of an RF passband for wide bandwidth
receiving and good image response rejection.
4-1-3 1ST MIXER AND 1ST IF CIRCUITS (RF UNIT)
The 1st mixer circuit converts the received signal into a fixed
frequency of the 1st IF signal with a PLL output frequency.
By changing the PLL frequency, only the desired frequency
will pass through a crystal filter at the next stage of the 1st
mixer.
The signals from the RF circuit are mixed at the 1st mixer
(Q12) with a 1st LO signal (AM; 77.95–106.925 MHz,
FM; 131.6–133.225 MHz) coming from the VCO circuit to
produce a 30.05 MHz 1st IF signal.
The 1st IF signal is applied to a crystal filter (FI1) to sup-
press out-of-band signals. The filtered 1st IF signal is
applied to the 1st IF amplifier (Q13), then applied to the 2nd
mixer circuit (IC1, pin 16).
4-1-4 2ND IF AND DEMODULATOR CIRCUITS (RF
UNIT)
The 2nd mixer circuit converts the 1st IF signal into a 2nd IF
signal. A double conversion superheterodyne system (which
converts receive signals twice) improves the image rejection
ratio and obtains stable receiver gain.
The IF IC contains the 2nd local oscillator, 2nd mixer, limiter
amplifier, quadrature detector and s-meter detector circuit,
etc.
The 1st IF signal from the 1st IF amplifier (Q13) is applied to
the 2nd mixer section of the IF IC (IC1, pin 16), and is mixed
with a 29.6 MHz 2nd LO signal generated at the PLL cir-
cuit using the reference frequency (29.6 MHz) to produce a
450 kHz 2nd IF signal.
The 2nd IF signal from the 2nd mixer (IC1, pin 3) passes
through a ceramic filter (FI2) to remove unwanted hetero-
dyned frequencies. The filtered signal is amplified at the IF
amplifier (Q15), and is then applied to the AM detector cir-
cuit or FM detector circuit respectively.
(1) AM DETECTOR CIRCUIT
The amplified signal is amplified again at the 2nd IF ampli-
fiers (Q16, Q17) and applied to the AM detector (Q18) to
demodulate the 2nd IF signal into AF signals.
The demodulated AF signals are applied to the AM/FM
switch (IC2, pin 6) via the ANL circuit (D18).

• 2ND IF AND DEMODULATOR CIRCUIT
• AGC CIRCUIT
(2) FM DETECTOR CIRCUIT
The amplified signal is applied to the limiter amplifier section
of the IF IC (IC1, pin 5) and is then applied to the quadra-
ture detector (IC1, pins 10, 11) to demodulate the 2nd IF
signal into AF signals.
The demodulated AF signals are output from pin 9 of the
IC1 and are applied to the AM/FM switch (IC2, pin 7).
4-1-5 AF CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The AF amplifier circuit amplifies the demodulated AF sig-
nals to drive a speaker.
AF signals from the AM detector (Q18; While in AM mode)
or IF IC (IC1, pin 9; While in FM mode) are applied to the
AM/FM switch (IC2, pin 6 or 7). The output signals from
pin 1 are applied to the AF amplifier (IC18, pins 1, 2), and
then pass through the low-pass filter (IC18, pins 5, 7, 8, 10).
The filtered signals are amplified at the OP-amplifier (IC18,
pins 13, 14), and are then applied to the AF power amplifier
(IC6, pin 4) to obtain the specified audio level after being
passed through the electric volume (IC17, pins 21, 22). The
amplified AF signals are applied to the internal speaker (SP1)
via the [SP] jack (J5) when no plug is connected to the jack.
4-1-6 SQUELCH CIRCUIT (RF AND LOGIC UNITS)
A squelch circuit cuts out AF signals when no RF signals
are received. By detecting noise components in the AF sig-
nals, the squelch switches the AF mute switch.
The AGC signal from the AGC amplifier (Q10) is amplified
again at the RSSI amplifier (IC13) and is then applied to the
CPU (LOGIC unit; IC1,pin 29) as the “RSSI” signal.
The CPU analyzes the noise condition and outputs the con-
trol signal to the expander IC (IC5). The expander IC (IC5,
pin 4) outputs the squelch control signal as the “AFC” sig-
nal. The signal is applied to the AF out control circuit (Q36,
Q35) to control the power amplifier (IC6) and cut the AF
signal line.
4-1-7 AGC CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The AGC (Automatic Gain Control) circuit reduce signal fad-
ing and keeps the audio output level constant.
AF signals from the AM detector circuit (Q18) are applied
to the AGC amplifier circuits (Q14; for 1st/2nd IF amplifiers,
Q10; for RF amplifier, Q9; for RF attenuator). The signal
from the AGC amplifiers is applied to the 1st/2nd IF ampli-
fiers (Q13, Q15, Q16) and RF amplifier (Q11) to reduce the
amplifier gain and RF attenuator (D29) to attenuate the RF
signals when strong signals are received.
When strong RF signals disappear, then the AGC signal is
released to keep the constant audio output level.

• ANL CIRCUIT
• VOR NAVIGATION CIRCUIT
4-1-8 ANL CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The ANL (Automatic Noise Limiter) circuit (Q21, D18)
reduces noise components.
The AM detector output signal from the Q18 is applied to
the cathode of D18 passing through R99 where it is divided
by R99 and R100. The signal is also applied to the anode of
D18, passing through R101 and R102.
When the ANL function is activated (Q21 is ON), C115 is
grounded. The detector output, including noise components,
are applied to the cathode of D18 only. If noise components
are received, the cathode voltage of D18 becomes higher
than the anode voltage and D18 turns OFF. Thus, while
noise components are received, the detected signal is not
applied to IC2.
4-1-9 VOR NAVIGATION CIRCUIT (LOGIC UNIT)
(IC-A24/E ONLY)
From the AF signal, the VOR circuit detects a variable signal
(VORC) and reference signal (VORS) from a VOR station.
The VOR circuit sends these signals to the CPU (IC1).
When the transceiver is set in the navigation band (108.000
–117.975 MHz), the VORON port of the CPU (IC1, pin 118)
becomes “HIGH” turning the VOR circuit ON via Q15. Q15
controls a 5 V power source for the VOR circuit.
The signal from the AM detector (VORDET) is buffer ampli-
fied at the OP-AMP IC (IC12).
The “VORDET” signal includes 30 Hz variable phase com-
ponents and 9960 Hz reference phase components.
The 30 Hz component passes through the 30 Hz bandpass
filter (IC12, R83–R88, C112, C113), and is converted to
a square-wave signal at the VORS comparator (IC14).
The square-wave signal is then applied to the
CPU (IC1,
pin 2) as variable signal (VORS).
The 9960 Hz component passes through the 10 kHz
bandpass filter (IC12, R79–R82, C108, C109). These com-
ponents are FM modulated with 480 Hz deviation and 30 Hz
modulation.
Signals are then amplified at a limiter amplifier (IC11), and
detected at an FM detector (IC11) to obtain a 30 Hz refer-
ence signal.
The 30 Hz signal is compensated on phase at IC12. This
signal is passed through the 30 Hz low-pass filter (IC12)
and is converted to a square-wave signal at the VORC com-
parator (IC14). This signal is applied to the CPU (IC1, pin 3)
as a reference signal (VORC).
A portion of output from the buffer amplifier (IC12) is applied
to the amplifier (Q13). When VOR level is low or receiving
the signal except VOR signal, output from IC12 is reduced.
Output signal from Q13 is applied to the CPU (IC1, pin 28)
as a “OFF FLAG” signal (VORD).

4-2 TRANSMITTER CIRCUITS
4-2-1 MICROPHONE AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The microphone amplifier circuit amplifies audio signals with
+6 dB/octave pre-emphasis characteristics from the micro-
phone to a level needed for the modulation circuit.
AF signal from the internal/external microphone are applied
to the microphone amplifier (IC15, IC19) via the microphone
mute switch (Q51) and the microphone volume controller
(IC17; pins 15, 16). The amplified signals are applied to the
AF controller (IC17, pins 13, 14, and are then applied to
buffer amplifier (IC18, pins 1, 2). Amplified signals passes
through the low-pass filters (IC18, pins 4, 5, 8, 10) and are
then applied to the modulation circuit (D5, D51).
4-2-2 MODULATION CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The modulation circuit modulates the TX LO signal from the
VCO (RF signal) using the microphone audio signal.
While in transmission, the LO signal from the VCO circuit
(Q58, D38, D48) is amplified at the buffer amplifiers (Q28,
Q60) and passed through the LO switch (D6). This signal is
then applied to the AM modulator (D5, D51).
The buffer amplifier (Q6) amplifies the LO signal with a gain
controlled by an AF signal to make low level modulation.

4-2-3 DRIVE/POWER AMPLIFIER CIRCUITS
(RF UNIT)
The drive amplifier circuit amplifies the transmit signal to
a level needed for the power amplifier circuit. The power
amplifier circuit amplifies this to obtain a specified transmit
output power.
The modulated RF signal from the buffer amplifier (Q6) is
applied to the pre-drive amplifier (Q4) after being passed
through the ALC attenuator (D4). The signal is amplified at
the YGR (Q3) and power amplifier (Q2) to obtain 5 W (PEP)
(3.6 W (PEP) for [EUR]) of RF power. The amplified signal
passes through the low-pass filter (L6, L46, C22, C212,
C297, C299). The filtered signal is applied to the antenna
connector (CHASSIS unit; J1) via the power detector (D2,
D3, L5), antenna switch (D1) and low-pass filter (L1–L3,
L45, C3–C7, C210, C211).
4-2-4 ALC CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The ALC (Automatic Level Control) circuit controls the input
level of the pre-drive amplifier to obtain stable output power.
The power detector circuit (D2, D3) detects transmit out-
put power level. The detected voltage are combined and is
then amplified at the ALC amplifier (Q5) after being passed
through the ALC controller (Q1). The amplified signal is
applied to the ALC attenuator (D4) to obtain stable output
power.

4-4 POWER SUPPLY CIRCUITS
VOLTAGE LINES (MAIN UNIT)
LINE DESCRIPTION
HV The voltage from the connected DC power
supply.
VCC
The same voltage as the HV line or battery
voltage through the power switch (Q24, D19,
D22).
CPU 5
Common 5 V converted from the HV line at
the CPU5V regulator circuit (LOGIC unit;
IC3). The output voltage is applied to the
CPU (LOGIC unit; IC1), reset IC (LOGIC
unit; IC2) and EEPROM
(LOGIC unit; IC7),
etc.
+5V
Common 5 V converted from the VCC line
by the +5 V regulator circuit (LOGIC unit;
IC16, Q4, Q6, Q7, D10). The output voltage
is applied to the PLL IC (RF unit; IC3) and
D/A convertor IC (RF unit; IC17), etc.
T5V
Transmit 5 V controlled by the T5V regula-
tor circuit (RF unit; Q7, Q8, D8) using TXC
signal from the CPU (LOGIC unit; IC1). The
output voltage is applied to the buffer ampli-
fier (RF unit; Q6) and pre-driver (RF unit;
Q4), etc.
R5S
Receive 5 V controlled by the R5S regulator
circuit (Q20) using R5C signal from the CPU
(LOGIC unit; IC1). The output voltage is ap-
plied to the RF amplifier (RF unit; Q12) and
1st IF amplifier (RF unit; Q13), etc.
4-3 PLL CIRCUITS (RF UNIT)
A PLL circuit provides stable oscillation of the transmit
frequency and receive 1st LO frequency. The PLL output
compares the phase of the divided VCO frequency to the
reference frequency. The PLL output frequency is controlled
by the divided ratio (N-data) of a programmable divider.
The PLL circuit contains the TX VCO circuit (Q58, D38,
D48) and RX VCO circuit (Q59, D39, D45–D47). The oscil-
lated signal is amplified at the buffer-amplifiers (Q60, Q29)
and then applied to the PLL IC (IC3, pin 8).
The PLL IC contains a prescaler, programmable counter,
programmable divider and phase detector, etc. The entered
signal is divided at the prescaler and programmable counter
section by the N-data ratio from the CPU. The divided signal
is detected on phase at the phase detector using the refer-
ence frequency.
If the oscillated signal drifts, its phase changes from that of
the reference frequency, causing a lock voltage change to
compensate for the drift in the oscillated frequency.
A portion of the VCO signal is amplified at the buffer-ampli-
fier (Q28) and is then applied to the receive 1st mixer (Q12)
or transmit buffer-amplifier circuit (Q6) via the T/R switches
(D6, D17).
