tra3900 amu fault finding

 

Hi

I have a tra3900 vhf set which has high harmonic content on when the bnc socket is in use (-20 to -30dBc). If the whip is in use the transmit is clean with harmonics better than -60dBc. I am suspecting a failed bias transistor, cap or possibly pin diode in the amu. The 85V rail is good. I wonder, does anybody have a drawing of the amu from yeoman or panther radios? It would make the search easier, it's all rather smt inside it.

Kind regards

George

Andy,
The attached is slightly better, if zoomed in (but not by much). ?Not the easiest manuals to copy, as they really need an A3 scanner, which I don’t have.

Peter,

I have a PRM 4031 and I found some info on the web. I have it on the PC somewhere, I will look for it tomorrow and see what I have.

Mine has a fault on the synth board which I have been unable to find. I am using an external VFO which makes using the radio much easier.

Re: VRM 5090 need value of R80

 

thank you? !! ? I knew? it was a low value as its was crispy,? a tantalum of course shorted and pulled what ever is on the trace to ground ?
we will see if it works after i replace all of the 4.7 uf caps and the fuse resistor.?

the rest of the radio works well , this is one of the KAPSCH made units
