Troubleshooting Procedures: Power Amplifier Procedures 4-23
If it is verified that both power set and current limit are not related to the power problem, then the
synthesizer output must be checked. A milliwatt meter connected to the TX injection cable should
indicate at least 10 mW of injection power during key-up. If this is not the case, refer to the RF board
and VCO sections of this manual for troubleshooting procedures.
