3 ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE
RV1 is normally set so that the RFO LED comes ON at 1-3 db below the normal
power output.
2.7 Over Temperature Protection
Thermistor RT1 is mounted to the case of output transistor Q4. If the transistor
case temperature rises above 90 degrees C the resistance of RT1 increases and Q2
is turned ON.
This causes the TEMP LED to come on and also reduces the dc reference voltage
to the output power error amplifier U2d. The input power will then be reduced by
the transmitter ALC circuits and the output transistors are kept within safe
operating limits.
3 Alignment Procedure
The following procedures may be used to align the amplifier for optimum
performance.
