Check Mixer:
Remove shield, SH7. Check the
polarity of T503 and check to
see that all pins are grounded.
Visually inspect windings.
Is the polarity
correct and all pins
are gounded?
Yes
Measure the LO power going into the mixer, U506,
For VHF/7/800 radio, at the output side of C599.
For UHF1/VHF, UHF1 / 7/800, UHF1/UHF2, UHF2/VHF
& UHF2 /7/800 radio, at the output side of C528.
Is the LO power
= -5 dBm?
Yes
Remove shield, SH2. Check
the polarity of T504 and check

Check LNA:
No
Check DC bias voltages
of Q503 at the base (pin
1) & collector (pin 3).
Is base voltage =
0.756V? and
collector voltage =
1.560 V?
Yes
Check DC bias voltages of
Q501at the base (pin 2 or
5), collector (pin 3) and the
emitter (pin 4).
Is base voltage =
1.080 V? Collector
voltage = 0.756 V?
Emitter voltage = 1.583
V?
Yes
Check DC input line voltages
