Chapter 2 Radio Power
This chapter provides a detailed circuit description of the power distribution of an ASTRO APX 7000/
7000XE radio.
2.1 General
In the ASTRO APX 7000/ 7000XE radio, power (B+) is distributed to two boards: the transceiver
(RF) board and the VOCON board (see Figure 2-1 on page 2-2).
Power for the radio is provided through a battery supplying a nominal 7.5 Vdc directly to the
transceiver. The following battery types and capacities are available:
