Receiver Fault Finding
Fault Conditions
This section covers the diagnosis of faults in the receiver. The fault-diagnosis
procedures consist of 18 tasks grouped into the following sections.
The symptoms of the fault in the receiver circuitry determine which
sections are relevant:
■
■
“Excessive Loss of Sensitivity”
■
“Moderate or Slight Loss of Sensitivity”
■
■
■
If the receiver sensitivity is low, begin with
“Faulty Receiver Sensitivity” on
to determine the extent of the loss in sensitivity.
CCTM Commands
The CCTM commands required are listed in
. Full details of the
commands are given in
“Computer-Controlled Test Mode (CCTM)” on
Frequency Bands
Where test procedures or figures differ according to the frequency band of
the radio, the frequency band is given in brackets. The frequency band may
be referred to as either ‘VHF’ (very high frequency) or ‘UHF’ (ultra high
frequency) or identified by the frequency sub-band, such as ‘B1’ or ‘H7’.
The product-code label on the radio body will identify the frequency band
as described in
. A definition of frequency
bands is given in
“Defining Frequency Bands” on page 126
