Check
1st
LO Signal at Sampler/Mixer
If the 4
kHz
signal is bad at the sampler/mixer assembly, check the
1st
LO signal
where it enters the sampler/mixer assembly in question.
q
If the
1st
LO is faulty, check the
1st
LO signal at its output connector on the
A7
assembly to determine if the failure is in the cable or the assembly.
q
If the
1st
LO is good, continue with “Check
2nd
LO
SiiaI
at Sampler/Mixer”.
Check
2nd
LO Signal at Sampler/Mixer
Check the 2nd
LO
signal at the pins identified in
‘0ble
8-3. Refer to the
“Al2
Reference Check” in Chapter 7, “Source Troubleshooting”, for analog bus
and oscilloscope checks of the
2nd
LO and waveform illustrations

If the 2nd LO is good at the sampler/mixer, the sampler/mixer assembly is faulty.
Otherwise, troubleshoot the
Al2
assembly and associated
signal
path.
