OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Having properly installed your batteries and hooked-up the antenna, you are now ready to operate your

radio for optimum reception and voice transmission.

Turn the power “ON” with ON/OFF switch.

Set the desired channel in FM or AM.

Adjust the squelch control knob to reduce any undesirable background noise when no signal is being

received. To do this, select a channel where no signal are present, or wait until signals cease on your

channel. Then, rotate the squelch control knob clockwise to a point where the background noise

disappears.

Note: When the squelch is set properly, the speaker will remain quiet until a signal is received. In order to

receive weak signals, do not set the squelch too high.

Adjust the volume to the desired listening level.

To Transmit

Press and hold the push-to-talk button. Speak slowly and clearly in a normal voice two to three inches from

the microphone. A built-in modulation control circuit will automatically adjust the microphone input level.

There is no need to speak loudly.

To Receive

Release the push-to-talk button.

Note: Other operations mode see user manual.

THEORY OF OPERATIONS

TRANSMITTER

A. RF Amplification

The output of double AMP Q14 is fed through tuning IFT L8 to the base of pre driver AMP Q15. The

output is then supplied through tuning circuit L9 to RF driver AMP Q16. The output of Q16 is supplied

with tuning circuit L10 and C116,C67,C95 and goes to the base of final RF AMP Q17. The output of Q17

is supplied to the antenna through L-C tuning circuit.

B. Modulation Control

i. FM

The mic input is fed to mic audio amplifier IC which drives modulation varicap diode D403 in the VCO

circuit. RV1 is used to limit the incoming modulation audio levels to inhibit over modulation.

ii. AM

Modulation signals are filtered with RC network and goes to the audio power AMP IC IC103 to make

nominal signal level to achieve wanted modulation. To control incoming audio signal, diode D7 and

corresponding ALC circuit is used to limit the incoming modulation.

C. Receiver

CB receiver is dual conversion super-heterodyne type with the first IF 10.695 MHz and second IF 455 KHz.

Receiver is separated into two blocks, 1st IF section and 2nd IF section. The PLL synthesizer supplies first

local frequency 37.26 ~ 38.686 MHz.(for EU) With the provided first local frequencies to Q2,Q3 mixes the

incoming RF signal to generate first IF signal. Mixed signals were filtered with the XF1 (10.695 MHz)

crystal filter and other tuning circuits. The filtered signal is then further mixed with the second local

frequency of 10.24 MHz to generate the second IF. Output signal of mixer is filtered with CF1 (455 KHz

ceramic filter). The 455 KHz signal from the 2nd IF filter was amplified and limits internally. After

amplification the signals fed the quadrate detector loop L20. Then we can see the recovered audio signals

on Pin 9 for FM of IC7. With the amplitude of recovered signals, Q10 serves as an audio amplifier. For

AM signal, it will be passed through the filter CF1 and be induced to Q6, Q7 respective and detected to

voice signal by D5.

ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE

VCO Voltage

1. Test point TP1 connect to the multi-meter，set UUT enter test mode. Use channel “UP” key to select CH41

(26.565MHz) of DE Band in FM mode.

2. Adjust IFT L17 for 1.0 ±0.1V on the Multi-meter read，and then checking CH40 (27.99125MHz) of UK Band

should be less than 3.8V.

RX Alignment

Audio Level

1. UUT set to FM mode CH19，output of RF signal generator connect to TP2. Audio dummy load connect to

EXT. Speaker. (@8Ωload)

2. Set RF S.S.G Freq.: 10.695MHz，Mod.: ±1.2KHz，Fmod.: 1KHz, Output level:1mV.

3. Squelch Volume set to minimum position, volume control set to around middle position.

4. Adjust IFT L20 for maximum audio output amplitude.

Sensitivity
