CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

28 TX-RX Unit Frequency Configuration
The 28 MHz unit incorporates a variable frequency
oscillator
(VF ), based on a phase-locked-loop (PLL)
synthesizer system, that allows a channel step of 5,10,
15, 20, or 25 kHz to be selected. The frequency in the
receive signal channel is mixed with a first local oscillation
frequency of 36.83-38.525 MHz to produce a first
intermediate
frequency (IF) of 8.83 MHz.
This frequency is then mixed with a second local
oscillation frequency of 9.285 MHz to produce a second
IF of 455 kHz. This is called a double-conversion system.
The signal in the transmission channel is produced by
direct oscillation, is frequency-divided by a PLL circuit,
amplified by a linear amplifier, then transmitted.

28 TX-RX Unit Receive Signal Channel
• Outline
The received signal from the antenna passes through
a low-pass filter in the final transmission stage and then
through a transmission/reception selection diode switch
to the receiving front end. The signal then passes
through an antenna matching coil and is amplified to high
frequencies
by a M S field-effect transistor. The un 
wanted components of the signal are eliminated by a
bandpass filter consisting of a three-stage variable ca 
pacitor. The resulting signal goes to the first mixer, is
mixed with the first local signal from the PLL circuit, then
converted to the first IF of 8.83 MHz. The unwanted
near-by signal components are then eliminated by a two-

The first IF signal is amplified and input to FM IF HIC

ATT circuit
If there is cross modulation, the ATT circuit operates
to attenuate the received signal before it enters Q2 (FET
for high-frequency amplification).
28 TX-RX Unit Transmit Signal Channel
• Outline
In the transmission channel, the desired frequency is
produced by direct oscillation, and is directly frequency
modulated by means of a varicap diode.
• Modulator circuit
The audio signal from the control unit is input to
microphone
amplifier HIC ICS (KCA04). IC4 consists of
a preemphasis circuit, amplifier, limiter, and splatter
circuit that eliminates unwanted high-frequency
components. The voltage-controlled oscillator (VF )
signal is directly frequency modulated by means of a
varicap diode in the frequency modulator circuit.
• Younger-stage circuit
The signal output from the VC is input to drive
circuit HIC IC16 (KCB16). The amplifier can obtain a
stable drive output without adjustment because it has a
large bandwidth. An ARC circuit controls the collector
voltage in the Younger final stage.
• Power amplifier circuit
The drive signal is amplified to the specified level by
a discrete transistor. Q2 performs class B amplification,
and the collector output voltage is controlled by an ARC
circuit. Q202 amplifies the power by class C operation,
improving the efficiency of the final stage.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
• APC circuit
The automatic transmission output control circuit
(APC) detects and partially amplifies the power amplifier
output with a diode, and controls the output control
voltage. Thecontrolvoltageisoutputin inverse proportion
to the output, so the control voltage output is always
constant. To protect the radio against excessive tem 
perature rise, the high-power unit has a thermal switch.
The high-power unit is automatically set to a low power
by the thermal switch if it exceeds the specified tem 
perature.
• 8T (8 V during transmission) and unlock signal
The signal output from pin 4 of IC1 is high during
reception, Q1 3 is turned on, and Q1 4 and Q11 are turned
off. No voltage appears at the coljector (8T) of Q11.
Serial data is output from the control unit during trans
mission and input to shift register IC1 . Pin 4 of IC1 is
then
made low. Therefore, Q1 3 is turned off, and 14and
Q11 are turned on. An 8 V voltage is applied to the
collector (8T) of Q1 1.
If the PLL circuit is unlocked during transmission, the
LD pin goes low, Q24 is turned off, Q13 is turned on,
Q14 is turned off, Q1 1 for 8T switching control is turned
off, and the 8T line does not operate.

28 TX-RX Unit PLL Synthesizer
The VC and PLL circuits are housed in a solid
shielding case as a hybrid integrated circuit. Compari 
son frequencies are produced by dividing a 9.285 MHz
reference oscillation frequency by 1857 to correspond
to the 5,10, 15, 20, and 25 kHz channel steps.
For 28 MHz, the relationship between f vco (RX) and
each frequency division ratio is given by
