RX AF CIRCUITS (LOGIC UNIT)
<A BAND>
The AF signals from the FM/AM demodulator circuits are 
passed through the mode SW (M: IC500D) and one of the 
AF filters (IC502 and Q501, or, Q502 only) whose audio 
frequency response is set as stable for each RX mode (FM/
AM or WFM). 
FM/AM-demodulated AF signals are filtered by IC502, and 
FM (WFM)-demodulated AF signals are filtered by Q502.
The filtered AF signals are passed through the D/A 
converter (DAC; IC600, pins 21, 22; 24, 23) for level 
adjustment. The level-adjusted AF signals are entered to the 
LOGIC UNIT via the RX AF mute SW (M: IC700, pins 8, 9), 
and applied to the AF power AMP (IC400) to obtain audio 
output power. The power-amplified AF signals are applied to 
the internal speaker or output from [DATA/SP/MIC] jack.
<B BAND>
• FM MODE
The FM-demodulated AF signals from the mute SW (M: 
IC500B) are passed through the mode SW (IC500A) and 
AF filter (M: IC501).
• AM MODE
The AM-demodulated AF signals from the AM detector (M: 
Q203, 204, D205) are directly passed through the AF filter 
(M: IC501, pin 2).
• DV MODE
The FM-demodulated signals from the IF IC (M: IC200) are 
passed through the tone filter (M: IC250). The filtered signals 
are applied to the modem (IC501) via the tone selector (M: 
IC703) and buffer (IC504B), to be converted into the DV data. 
The DV data is applied to the CPU (IC1), and converted into 
the AMBE signals. The AMBE signal is then applied to the 
DSP CODEC IC (IC506) and decoded. The decoded AMBE 
signals are converted into the analog audio signal by liner 
CODEC IC (IC503). The converted AF signals are passed 
through the mode SW (M: IC500A) and AF filter (M: IC501). 
The filtered AF signals are passed through the D/A 
converter (DAC; M: IC600, pins 13, 14; 16, 15) for level 
adjustment. The level-adjusted AF signals are entered to 
the LOGIC UNIT via RX AF mute SW (M: IC700C/D), and 
applied to the AF power AMP (IC400) to obtain audio output 
power. The power-amplified AF signals are applied to the 
internal speaker or output from [DATA/SP/MIC] jack.

SQUELCH CIRCUIT
The squelch circuit cuts off the AF output signals when 
no RF signals are received. Detecting noise components 
(approx. 30 kHz signals) in the demodulated AF signals, the 
squelch circuit stops audio signals being emitted. 
A portion of FM-demodulated AF signal from the IF IC 
(M: IC100/IC200) is passed through the DAC (M: IC600) 
for level (=threshould) adjustment. The level-adjusted AF 
signals are passed through the noise filter (IC100, pins 7, 8 
and R111–113, C121, 122/IC200, pins 7, 8 and R214–216, 
C221, 222) to filter the noise components (approx. 30 kHz 
signals) only. The noise components are rectified to produce 
DC voltage corresponding to the noise level. 
If the noise level is higher than the preset one, the internal 
comparator set the "ANOISE"/"BNOISE" signal to the 
CPU to "High", then the CPU turns the "AFON" signal 
which controlls the AF power AMP (L: IC400) to "Low," to 
inactivate the AF power AMP (L: IC400). At the same time, 
the CPU turns the "ARMUTE"/"BRMUTE" signal which 
controlls the RX AF mute SW (L: IC700) to "Low," to cut-off 
the RX AF line.
