OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Having properly installed your batteries and hooked-up the antenna, you are now ready to operate your
radio for optimum reception and voice transmission.
Turn the power “ON” with ON/OFF switch.
Set the desired channel.
Adjust the squelch control knob to reduce any undesirable background noise when no signal is being
received. To do this, select a channel where no signal are present, or wait until signals cease on your
channel. Then, rotate the squelch control knob clockwise to a point where the background noise
disappears.
Note: When the squelch is set properly, the speaker will remain quiet until a signal is
received. In order to receive weak signals, do not set the squelch too high.
Adjust the volume to the desired listening level.
To Transmit
Press and hold the push-to-talk button. Speak slowly and clearly in a normal voice two to three inches
from the microphone. A buit-in modulation control circuit will automatically adjust the microphone input
level. There is no need to speak loudly.
To Receive
Release the push-to-talk button.

THEORY OF OPERATIONS
TRANSMITTER
A. RF Amplification
The output of double AMP Q301 is fed through tuning IFT L301 and L302 to the base of pre driver AMP
Q302. The output is then supplied through tuning circuit L303 to RF driver AMP Q303. The output of
Q303 is supplied with tuning circuit L304 and C317,C315,C21 and goes to the base of final RF AMP
Q304. The output of Q304 is supplied to the antenna through L-C tuning circuit.
B. Circuit for Suppression of Spurious Radiation
The tuning circuit between the output of final AMP Q304 and antenna, 4-stage “PHI” network L308,
C324, C1, C327, L311, C337, C333, L312, C328, C334, C338, L313 serves as a spurious radiation
suppressor . This network also serves to match the impedance between TX power AMP Q304 and the
antenna.
C. Circuit for Limiting Power
After finished all alignment, the constant voltage supply circuit limits the available power 4 W or slightly
less. RV1 and corresponding three transistors control supply voltage of RF amplifier and other circuits.
Tune all the trimmer parts for maximum indication of RF power meter and adjust RV1 to make 4 w
indication of RF power meter.
The tuning is adjusted so that the actual power is from 3.8 to 4.0 W. There are no other additional
controls for adjusting the TX output power.
D. Modulation Control
a. FM
The mic input is fed to mic audio amplifier IC KIA324 which drives modulation varicap diode
D403 in the VCO circuit. RV401 limits the incoming modulation audio levels to inhibit over modulation.
While reading the modulation factor on the modulation analyzing equipment, adjust
RV401 shall not exceed +-1.8 KHz/Dev. After 20 dB up from 1.25 KHz/1.2 KHz/Dev. Audio level
b. AM
Modulation signals are filtered with RC network and goes to the audio power AMP IC IC103 to make
nominal signal level to achieve wanted modulation. To control incoming audio signal, diode D203 and
corresponding ALC circuit limits the modulation shall not exceed +/-80% adjust RV201 +/-80%
modulation under 1.0 KHz AF 60% mod plus 20 dB of audio signal.

E. Receiver
CB receiver is dual conversion supper-heterodyne type with the first IF 10.695 MHz and second IF 455
KHz. Receiver is separated two blocks, 1st IF section and 2nd IF section.
The PLL synthesizer supplies first local frequency 16.270 ~ 16.710 MHz.(for EU) and 16.90625 MHz ~
17.29625 MHz (for UK) With the provided first local frequencies Q105,Q106 mixes the incoming RF
signal to generate first IF signal. Mixed signals were filtered with the XF101 (10.695 MHz) crystal filter
and other tuning circuits. Output signal of mixer is filtered with CF101 (455 KHz ceramic filter). The 455
KHz signal from the 2nd IF filter was amplified and limits internaly. After amplification the signals fed the
quadrature detector loop L104. Then we can see the recovered audio signals on Pin 11 for FM of
IC102. With the amplitude of recovered signals, Q112 serves as an audio amplifier. For AM signal Will
be pass filter CF101 and induced to Q116, Q117 respective and detected to voice signal by D111.
