Don:
Thanks for the help. The squelch is off. Taking the testing further, it
appears that the CAL PLL fails (Info 232) when connected into the TP1 test
port. The initial frequency I happen to see (when the test starts) is 11348.
I happened to read an older post about this subject, and went down that
road (as you had suggested). I have found the following results, when
trying various things, namely:
1. Voltage Controlled Oscillator Readings.
80m 2.243V to 5.85 V over range of 3.5 to 4.0
40m 8.04V to 8.04V over range of 7.0 to 7.3
30m 2.505 to 2.973V over range of 10 to 10.15
20m 2.363 to 3.95V over range of 14 to 15
17m 3.113 to 3.310 over range of 18 to 18.2
15m 2.001 to 2.995 over range of 21 to 21.45
12m 3.90 to 4.26 over range of 24.8 to 25
10m 3.282 to 4.12 over range of 28 to 28.8
With the band switch set to 40m (7.000) TP1 reads 11348 Khz, rather than
11915, as discussed previously. TP3 reads 12094.35, and the range test
passes (14.4 kHz).
I guess it's not right that the VCO on 40m doesn't appear to change. Is
that so? Am I heading in the right direction? Any pointers would be
appreciated.
Thanks
Eric
