Frequency Conversion
The A2A115 Downconverter, see Figure 10-3 on page 290, produces an
IF of 114.3, 385.7 or 614.3 MHz. The LO is provided by the A2A22
Receiver Synthesizer, see Figure 10-4 on page 291. The IF frequencies
developed are as follows in Table 10-1.
Filters are automatically switched in to remove image and other
interfering signals. The frequency ranges of the filters are as follows:
• 150 MHz low-pass
• 150 MHz - 386 MHz bandpass
• 350 MHz - 650 MHz tunable bandpass
• 650 MHz - 1000 MHz tunable bandpass
• 1400 MHZ - 2200 MHz tunable bandpass
Modulation Measurement
The A2A21 Receiver assembly demodulates the IF into its FM, AM, and
SSB components, see Figure 10-5 on page 292. The demodulated signal
is sent to the Audio Analyzer section for measurement.
