    Basic Theory of Operation The resulting intermediate frequency (IF) signal is fed to the IF circuitry, where it is again filtered and passed to the Abacus III digital back-end IC. In the digital back-end IC, the IF signal is mixed with the second local oscillator to create the second IF at 2.25 MHz.

    Basic Theory of Operation transmitter power amplifier, which transmits the signal under dynamic power control. ASTRO Mode of In the ASTRO (digital) mode of operation, the transmitted or received signal is limited to a discrete set of frequency deviation levels. The Operation receiver handles an ASTRO-mode signal identically to an analog-mode signal, up to the point where the DSP decodes the received data.
