4-3-2 VCO CIRCUIT (MAIN UNIT)
The VCO circuit contains a separate RX VCO (Q14, D19,
D20) and TX VCO (Q13, D16, D17). The oscillated signal is
amplified at the buffer amplifiers (Q10, Q12) and is then
applied to the T/R switch (D14, D15). Then the receive 1st
LO (Rx) signal is applied to the 1st mixer (Q3) and the trans-
mit (Tx) signal to the pre-drive amplifier circuit (Q9).
A portion of the signal from the buffer amplifier (Q12) is fed
back to the PLL IC (IC4, pin 8) via the buffer amplifier (Q11)
as the comparison signal.

DESCRIPTION
The voltage from the connected battery pack.
Common 5 V converted from the VCC line at the
+5 regulator circuit (IC9). The output voltage is
supplied to the fast switch (IC17), buffer ampli-
fiers (IC16, IC18) and so on.
Common 5 V converted from the VCC line at the
S5 regulator circuit (Q23Q25). The output volt-
age is supplied to the ripple filter (Q17), PLL IC
(IC4), FRONT unit, etc.
Receive 5 V converted from the S5V line at the
R5 regulator circuit (Q22). The output voltage is
supplied to the tripler (Q19), FM IF IC (IC1), IF
amplifier (Q4), VCO switch (Q15, Q16), 1st
mixer (Q3), etc.
Transmit 5 V converted from the S5V line at the
T5 regulator circuit (Q21). The output voltage is
supplied to the pre-drive (Q9), APC amplifier
(IC2).

DESCRIPTION
Same voltage as VCC line on the MAIN unit is
applied to the FRONT unit via the J401, pins 1,
2 (FRONT unit). The voltage is supplied to the
[PWR] switch controller (Q401, Q402).
Same voltage as +5V line on the MAIN unit is
applied to the FRONT unit via the J401, pin 4
(FRONT unit). The voltage is supplied to the
CPU (IC401), reset IC (IC408), etc.
Same voltage as S5V line on the MAIN unit is
applied to the FRONT unit via the J401, pin 5
(FRONT unit). The voltage is supplied to the mic
mute circuit (IC406), etc.
