Check digital logic
to the RF switch
and replace U403 if
needed.
Check digital logic
to the RF switch
and replace U405 if
needed.
Check digital logic
to the RF switch
and replace U402 if
needed.
Check digital logic
to the RF switch
and replace U404 if
needed.
Note: RF Test frequency used:
VHF: 154.275MHz
UHF1: 424.975MHz
UHF2: 485.075MHz
700: 769.0625MHz
800: 860.0625MHz
Measured with a high impedance probe for relative comparisons and
troubleshooting only.
Actual S21 gain or loss may differ if the test point is not 50 ohms.
