Receiver RF Preselector Alignment and Tuning

Tuning of the RF Preselector fi lter is typically only required when the Analog or Digital Sensitivity or
Analog Distortion do not meet published specifi cations, or when the receiver RF frequency is changed
beyond the band pass of the fi lter (typically 5 - 7 MHz in a VHF or UHF 400 MHz receiver). The UHF
700 / 800 / 900 MHz receiver RF Preselector is Full Band and does not require any tuning.

Connect the IFR 2975 and Codan Radio as shown in Figure 5-15.

Figure 5-15: Receiver RF Preselector Tuning

The RF Preselector output is a small RF cable internal in the receiver that terminates in an SMB
connector. The SMB plugs into J3 on the Receiver Mainboard. Disconnect the SMB cable from J3 and
use the SMB-BNC adapter to connect this point to the ANT input on the IFR 2975 as shown in Figure
5-16.
