The corresponding internal synthesizer jumper settings are:
Digital Board
Jumper JU2 not installed 9.6 MHz internal frequency reference selected
Jumper JU1 installed AM Multichannel mode selected
Analog Board
Jumper JU1: 'B' position Internal frequency reference selected
Jumper JU2 not installed Internal frequency reference selected
3.5 OS(R/T)-3(A/H) Synthesizer Alignment
3.5.1 General
Under normal circumstances (i.e. a change in operating frequency within the synthesizer’s
maximum tuning range), synthesizer alignment is accomplished with the synthesizer installed
in
the MT-3 Receiver IF/Audio Board or the MT-3 Transmitter Main Board. The alignment
procedure involves setting the internal TCXO reference frequency (if one is installed and the
internal reference option is enabled). This step is described in
"Reference Frequency
Alignment", section 3.5.5.5.
A change in operating frequency from the initial factory setting that
exceeds the synthesizer’s maximum tuning range (
Refer to Specifications section 1.3) requires a
more involved
alignment procedure as described in sections 3.5.2 to 3.5.5. Conversion of a
synthesizer from internal reference to external reference or vice-versa is accomplished through
selection of jumper JU1 A or B, as appropriate and JU2
(Refer to section 3.5.6).
