Set the MODE
switch to USB.
If the indi-
cation
of the
RF
vacuum
tube voltmeter
increases, the variable resistor (VRJ and the
trimmer must be adjusted to points where the
RF vacuum
tube voltmeter at USB and LSB
give
the
same
minimum
indication.
This
indication
is referred
to as A.
(If the indi-
cation
of
the
RF
vacuum
tube
voltmeter
decreases when
the MODE
switch is shifted
from
LSB
to
USB,
readjustment
by
the
variable resistor (VR2) and the trimmer (TC1}
is not required.
In this case the indication at
LSB is referred to as A).
Set the ATT
of the RF
vacuum
tube volt-
meter to its maximum condition.
Apply
7mV,
1500Hz
AF
signal to the MIC
terminal
and
check
that the power of more
than 80 watts is available.
The indication of
the RF vacuum
tube voltmeter is referred to
as B.
Ascertain
that
the difference
between
two
indications 'A' and "B" exceeds 40dB.
{Note]
-@ Continuous
transmission
for more
than
10
seconds is not permitted.
@ Tubes at the final stage must be brought into
an
inoperative
condition
with a ratio of 3 to
1 against all the transmission time.
@ Ventilation
by a fan must be complete during
transmission.
e@ Instead
of the RF
vacuum
tube voltmeter,
any type of S meter of the receiver being able
to receive 1OMHz
may be used.
In this case,
it must
be used
near the RF dummy
and
by
connecting a lead wire to the receiver anten-
na.
@ In case no measuring instrument is available,
adjustment must be made in accordance with
the instruction manual.

Connect
a dummy
to the ANT terminal and
also the AF
vacuum
tube voltmeter with a
dummy
of 8 ohms and the oscilloscope to the
PHONES terminal.
Set
the
STAND-BY
switch
and
the MODE
switch to SEND and CW, respectively.
Obtain

the maximum
power at 14.2MHz
by adjust-
ing each knob.
Ascertain
that high frequency
output
is re-
duced to zero when
the key is inserted into
the key Jack.
Check
that
the same
power
is available
as
before when
the key is pushed.
After this,
adjust the side tone variabie resistor (VR2)
mounted on the unit X49-0008-00 so that the
power of 5mW (0.2V/82) is available as side
tone AF output.
Check
that
the
semi-break-in
keying
is pos-
sible when
the key is pushed after setting the
STAND-BY switch to VOX.
