Installation - Unit System Check 3
The VHF Converter electrical installation is complete at
this point. Prior to applying AC power to the receiver for
testing, proceed as follows:
11) Position the receiver with the bottom of the unit
facing up, front panel toward you. Place the bottom
cover on the unit oriented with the lever feet or metal
bail toward the front panel of the receiver. Secure the
bottom cover using (6) #4-40 x 1/4 " Pan Head Philips
screws that were removed in step #2.
NOTE: You may wish to secure the bottom cover with
(2) screws until after unit system check, but note that
AC power is active at all times in the receiver
whenever it is connected to a source of AC power.
12) Position the receiver with the top of the unit facing
up, front panel towards you. Install the top cover using
the (5) #6-32 x 1/4" Pan Head Philips BLACK screws
retained in step #1.
UNIT SYSTEM CHECK
13) Connect the receiver to a source of AC power.
Press the 'POWER' button to place the receiver in the
'ON' mode.
The unit should automatically switch to the converter
antenna input if any frequency in the range of either 35
- 55 MHz or 108 - 174 MHz is selected. (If the above
action does not occur, check the 6-conductor cable
assembly of the VHF converter). Once proper
operation is noted, tune in a known active signal in
either the range of 35 - 55 MHz or 108 - 174 MHz.
Select the proper mode, bandwidth and other
parameters as appropriate.
HINT: In many areas of the U.S., the NOAA weather
stations are active on one of the following frequencies:
162.400 MHz, 162.475 MHz or 162.550 MHz. One of
those or a similar type station could be tuned in as a
convenient operational check.
Once correct operation is verified, disconnect the
receiver from the AC Power Source. Secure the top
and bottom covers with remaining screws if this has not
already been completed in steps #11 and #12.
The receiver with VHF Converter is now ready for
operation.
VHF OPERATION
Operation of the receiver in the VHF Bands of
35-55 MHz and 108-174 MHz is accomplished by
entering the desired frequency as described in the
"DIRECT FREQUENCY ENTRY" section of the
Receiver Owner's Manual
. Additionally, the receiver will
automatically tune to the 35-55 MHz band followed by
the 108-174 MHz band as the main tuning dial is tuned
above 30 MHz. All reception modes are
supported in the two VHF bands.
