2. AM Tuner
All components except Tuning capacitor and ferrite bar antenna are mounted on a printed
circuit board P100.
The AM signals induced in a ferrite bar antenna are applided to the base of Mixer transistor
H102 through a capacitor of C109, while the local oscillator voltage is injected to the emitter of
H102 through the capacitor C110. Both AM signals and oscillating voltage are mixed at the
base-emitter junction and converted into 455KHz intermediate frequency. The resulting IF signal
is applied to the first IF transformer L102 consisting of one ceramic fifter and two tuned circuits.
The output of L102 is led to the transistor H103 which in turn apply its output to the
transistor of next stage H104. The fully amplified IF output is then applied to the diode H108 to
detect audible signal through the detector transformer L103. The detected audio signal is filtered
and amplified and the final audio output is obtained from the collector of H105 and applied one
to the tape out jacks through monitor switch on the front panel and the other to the function
rotary switch.
The DC component of the detected IF signal is used as a AGC voltage to control emitter
current of H103 and H102 through the resistors R113 and R106 respectively. A part of IF signal
output is also applied to the diode H109 through a capacitor C125 and rectified to obtain DC
current for energizing the AM signal strength. meter M001.
3. FM Tuner
The FM Tuner section of Model 2220 is divided into three functional blocks: FM front end,
IF amplifier & Detector, Muting control and MPX stereo decoding circuit.
FM signals induced on a FM antenna are led to FM antenna coi! L106. These signals are then
applied to the FET RF amplifier which in turn applies its output to the next Transistor Mixer
H112 through a high-O tuned circuit. The Mixer convert its input signal into 10.7MHz
intermediate frequency and amplifies it. The H111 is a local oscillator and its output is injected
