Phase Lock Loop Step-Down.
The LO phase lock loop has stepped to a lower harmonic
of
the LF
VCXO
in an attempt to tune the LO to the required frequency. Stepping down once
is
occasionally necessary during normal tuning. See Service Sheet BD2 and

except that the loop
has stepped to a higher harmonic.
Error
72.
Audio Overload.
The Audio Overvoltage Detector has tripped. This may have been due to
the nature of the audio signal
(for
example, a high-frequency audio signal which overrides the circuits
preceeding
a
low-pass filter)
or
due to a problem in the audio circuits. See Service Sheet BD4.

Input.
An RF input signal has been sensed by the
Peak RF Level Detector but no
IF
signal has been sensed by the
IF
Level Detector. See Service Sheets
4 and 9.
