Realistic TRC-449 - Receiver Section Alignment; Receiver Alignment Procedure; Receiver Test Equipment Setup

ALIGNMENT OF RECEIVER SECTION
1. Equ ipment Requ ired
a. R F Signal Generator (455 kHz and 27 MHz Band, 50 ohm output impedance)
b. AF VTVM e. DC Power Supply
c. Oscilloscope f. 8 ohm load
d.
RF Voltmeter
2. Procedure (See page 8 )
Note;
Connect Test Equipment as shown below.
L2 is adjusted at the factory so no adjustment should be made.

REMARKS
Adjust
for a max. output.
Adjust for 2 volts output with
a SG output level of 0.5 /lV.
Adjust
for 2 volts output with
a SG output level of 0.25 /lV.
Adjust
for a reading of 5-9 on
the Transceiver's S-Meter,
with
SG output level of 100 /lV.
Adjust
so squelch circuit just
opens with 1 m V signal.
Adjust
for 2 volts output with a
SG output level of 0.5 /lV.
Adjust
for 2 volts output with a
SG output level of 50/lV.
Adjust for max. output with
Volt-Meter connected
to TP5,
with SG output level of 2001lV.
