Section III. PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
1-14. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF RT

The RT consists of the R/E and the ECCM Module. Principles of
operation of the ECCM Module are provided in TM 11-5895-1315-24, Navy
EE005-FG-MMI-010/W110-C11670G, Air Force TO 31R2-4-567-2. Functions
of the R/E can best be understood by discussing principles of opera-
tion in the manpack configuration and in the vehicular configuration.
a. Manpack Configuration. The simplified block diagram shows the

functions of the R/E when in the manpack configuration.
(1) Power-Up Condition. Upon power up, the Battery Case/Charger

provides +20 to +27 Vdc to the R/E through connector J2.
The R/E power supply conditions the input voltage and out-
puts +5 Vdc, +7 Vdc, +12 Vdc, and -12 Vdc to R/E circuits.
(2) Transmission. Upon activation of the push-to-talk (PTT)

switch on the handset, audio enters the RT through connector
Jl on the ECCM Module. Transmit (TX) audio from the ECCM
Module modulates the intermediate frequency (IF) in the
audio IF Module. The RF translator converts the signal into
its RF operating frequency. The RF signal passes through
the front panel-PA for amplification and the harmonics
filter to reduce unwanted harmonics. The RF signal passes
through the directional coupler and chassis ATU to the whip
antenna connector on the R/E front panel. The directional
coupler develops an automatic level control (ALC) voltage
which controls the gain of the front panel-PA. The chassis
ATU matches the antenna impedance with the impedance of the
transmit circuit.
(3) Reception. The incoming antenna signal passes through the

chassis ATU and the receive filters to the RF translator.
The RF translator converts the RF signal to the IF signal.
The audio IF demodulates the signal to extract the audio
intelligence. The receive (RX) audio is sent to the ECCM
Module through connector Jl.
(4) Tuning and Control of the R/E. The synthesizer decodes

serial data from the ECCM Module to develop the injection
frequencies for the audio IF and the RF translator. The
synthesizer also sends filter select voltages to the har-
monics filter which activate the appropriate filter for the
operating frequency. The frequency standard provides the
7.92 MHz base frequency for the synthesizer. The ATU
sequencer uses the PTT signal and mode control signals from
the ECCM Module to develop mode control voltages and tuning
commands. Tuning commands coupled with error signals from
1-16
1-14. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF THE RT (Cont.)
the directional coupler control the servo amplifier. The

servo amplifier drives variable components on the chassis
ATU to correct antenna mismatches and to reduce reflected
power. Power level control signals from the ECCM Module
program the power level memory. Power level voltages deter
mine the gain of the power amplifier on the front panel-PA.
The fail data transmitter serializes BIT information from
R/E subassemblies and sends the data to the ECCM Module.

b. Vehicular Configuration. The simplified block diagram shows

the functions of the R/E when in the vehicular configuration. When in
the vehicular configuration, the R/E is connected to the Vehicular
Adapter. The Vehicular Adapter functions as a mount for the R/E and
interfaces the R/E to the external PA and ATU. Additionally, the
Vehicular Adapter supplies power to the R/E and supports the high
speed synthesizer. The high speed synthesizer is used instead of the
R/E synthesizer to generate the injection frequencies. The high
speed synthesizer is controlled by frequency data from the ECCM Module
through connector J 2 . Connectors Jl and J4 on the ECCM Module inter-
face with COMSEC equipment. Connector J3 interfaces with the handset
when in the audio mode. Connector J6 serves as the data interface
when in the data mode.
(1) Power-Up Condition. Upon power up, the Vehicular Adapter

provides +28 Vdc to the R/E. The R/E power supply condi-
tions the input voltage and outputs +5 Vdc, +7 Vdc, +12 Vdc,
and -12 Vdc to R/E circuits.
(2) Transmission. Signal flow of the TX audio follows the same

path as it does during manpack operations except after pass-
ing through the directional coupler, the RF signal is routed
directly to the dipole (DIP) 50 ohm connector on the R/E
front panel. The chassis ATU used during manpack operations
is bypassed. From the DIP 50 ohm connector, the RF signal
is routed through the external PA, for further amplifica-
t i o n , and then to the external ATU to the antenna. The
external ATU matches the antenna impedance with the
impedance of the transmit circuit.
(3) Reception. The incoming RF signal is routed through the

external ATU and external PA to the DIP 50 ohm connector.
From this point, the RX audio follows the same path as it
does during manpack operations.
(4) Tuning and Control of the R/E. The high speed synthesizer
generates the injection frequencies for the RF translator
and for the audio IF. The synthesizer in the R/E decodes
serial data from the ECCM Module to develop filter select
signals. The filter select signals are sent to the Vehicu-
lar Adapter to control filter selection within the external
PA. The ATU sequencer sends tuning commands to the Vehicu-
lar Adapter to control the external ATU. The power level
memory sends power\level voltages to the Vehicular Adapter
to control the gain of the external PA. The fail data
transmitter functions in the same manner as it does in man-
pack operations except that it also provides the ECCM Module
the BIT status of the external PA and ATU.

a. Synthesizer A1A2A3. The synthesizer generates the injection

frequencies for the R/E when in the manpack configuration. When in
the vehicular configuration, the high speed synthesizer interlock
signal shuts down the synthesizer and the high speed synthesizer with-
in the Vehicular Adapter generates the injection frequencies. The
synthesizer consists of three functional circuits; the standard fre-
quencies circuit, the data receiver and logic circuit, and the synthe-
sizer loops circuit.
(1) Standard Frequencies Circuit. This circuit uses the 7.92

MHz from the chassis frequency standard assembly to develop
the following:
• 80 kHz, 79.2 kHz, and 1 MHz for the data receiver and
logic circuit.
• 500 kHz injection frequency for the audio IF.
• 50 kHz for switch regulators in the power supply. When

in the vehicular configuration, an external 500 kHz from
the Vehicular Adapter is divided down to 50 kHz and
applied to the power supply.
• 10 kHz to the ECCM Module and to the GMB assembly to

synchronize data transfer.
• 1 kHz to the audio IF for developing the continuous wave

(CW) tone.
(2) Data Receiver and Logic Circuit. This circuit processes the
serial data from the ECCM Module. The serial data is com-
posed of 48 bits of data and contains information for fre-
quency tuning and operating mode selection. It outputs
commands to the ATU sequencer to enable the CW mode and the
test mode. It also sends harmonics filter select signals to
the chassis harmonic filter. The incoming serial data is
synchronized by serial data clock pulses from the ECCM
Module. The data receiver and logic circuit also divides
down the 80 kHz, 79.2 kHz, and 1 MHz frequencies and pro-
vides the base frequencies for the synthesizer loops cir-
cuit. The synthesizer status signal is sent to the GMB
assembly.
(3) Synthesizer Loops Circuit. This circuit contains phase lock

loops (PLL) which generate 77 to 104.9 MHz and 75.5 MHz
(74.5 MHz when in lower sideband mode) for the RF transla-
tor. These injection frequencies are routed through a
switch on the GMB assembly before being applied to the RF
translator. When in the vehicular configuration, these
injection frequencies are generated externally in the high
speed synthesizer.

b. Audio IF A1A2A4. The functional description of the audio IF

Module can be best understood by discussing its operation in the
transmission and reception modes.
(1) Transmit. TX audio from the ECCM Module is filtered and

attenuated by the input filter before being applied to the
mixer. Using the 500 kHz injection frequency from the syn-
thesizer, the mixer converts the TX audio to a 500 kHz TX
IF signal. The USB filter, controlled by the VCO blank and
dual filter select signals, eliminates the lower sideband.
The second IF amplifier (first IF amplifier used in receive
only) increases the signal level before being sent to the
GMB assembly. The 500 kHz TX IF signal is routed through
relays on the GMB assembly and then sent to the RF trans-
lator. The second IF amplifier gain is controlled by the
gain control circuit via the full/reduced power signal from
the ATU sequencer. In the CW mode, the 1 kHz signal gener-
ated by the synthesizer passes through the narrow band
filter to eliminate the harmonics. The ATU sequencer
enables the CW mode. After filtering, the 1 kHz signal is
applied to the mixer. In both TX audio and CW modes, the
audio amplifier amplifies a portion of the signal to provide
the sidetone signal which is sent to the ECCM Module. The
test enable signal from the ATU sequencer initiates audio IF
BIT. Audio IF status is sent to the GMB assembly.

(2) Receive. The incoming 500 kHz RX IF signal is amplified by
the first IF amplifier and then filtered to eliminate the
lower sideband. After further amplification, by the second
IF amplifier, the 500 kHz RX IF signal is applied to the
mixer where it is converted to the RX audio signal. The RX
audio signal passes through the narrow band filter (switched
in the signal path only when in CW mode via the CW enable
signal). The audio amplifier increases the signal level
before it is sent to the ECCM Module. The RX automatic gain
control (AGC) is generated from the RX audio by the gain
control circuit. The RX AGC signal is applied to the IF
amplifiers and to the RF translator. When in vehicular data
configuration, AGC from the RN Modem passes through the ECCM
Module to the gain control circuit.

c. RF Translator A1A2A2. The signal path through the RF transla-

tor is the same in both transmission and reception. Relays on the GMB
assembly switch-in the required injection frequencies and the input/
output signals.
(1) Reception. The RX RF signal from the GMB assembly is mixed

with the 77.0 to 104.9 MHz injection frequency. The result-
ing 75.0 MHz mixer output passes through the tuned filter
and three gain-controlled amplifier stages. This allows
weak signals to be amplified and strong signals to be
attenuated by RX AGC from the audio IF Module. The second
mixer translates the 75.0 MHz signal into a 500 kHz RX IF by
mixing it with the 75.5/74.5 MHz injection frequency. The
500 kHz RX IF output is routed through the relay on the GMB
assembly to the audio IF Module.
(2) Transmission. The 500 kHz TX IF signal from the GMB

assembly is translated to 75.0 MHz by mixing it with 75.5/
74.5 MHz. The 75.0 MHz signal is filtered and then applied
to the three amplifier stages. The 75.0 MHz signal is then
mixed with the 77.0 to 104.9 MHz injection frequency. The
resulting TX RF signal is routed through the relay on the
GMB assembly to the front panel-PA. The gain of the three
amplifier stages is controlled by the gain control and
clipper circuit. When in frequency hopping (FH) mode, the
ATU sequencer disables the RX AGC and enables another (AGC
circuit within the RF translator). The RF translator BIT
status is routed to the GMB assembly.

d. Front Panel-PA A1A2A1. The front panel-PA includes the 25 watt
PA and the control and protection module. These circuits are powered
only during transmission via the TX enable signal from the chassis
interface assembly. The TX RF signal from the GMB assembly is ampli-
fied and applied to the chassis harmonics filters. The AGC for the 25
watt PA is determined by 5W/10W/25W level signals from the power level
memory on the GMB assembly. Additionally, the AGC is determined from
two reference voltages; reflected power from the servo amplifier and
forward power from the chassis directional coupler. The control and
protection module also develops a voltage proportional to the current
drain in the 25 watt PA and sends the over-current protection signal
to the ATU sequencer. The module also sends front panel-PA status to
the GMB assembly. Additional functions of the front panel-PA include
the routing of RF signals to/from the front panel antenna connectors.
If a whip antenna is connected to the front panel, the antenna switch
(interlock switch on front panel whip antenna connector) is auto-
matically activated. In this case, RX/TX RF from the chassis ATU is
routed through the antenna switch to the whip antenna. When the whip
antenna is disconnected, the antenna switch is automatically deactiva-
ted (set to off). When this occurs, the RX/TX RF is routed through
the chassis relay assembly to the DIP 50 ohm connector. When in the
vehicular configuration, the chassis ATU is bypassed by the chassis
relay assembly. The RX/TX RF is routed directly to the DIP 50 ohm
connector. The power ON-OFF switch applies ground to connector J2 on
the rear panel of the R/E.

e. ATU Sequencer A1A2A5. The ATU sequencer contains all ATU
tuning and mode control logic for the R/E. Upon power-up, the ATU
sequencer monitors the 50 ohm select signal from the ECCM Module. If
this signal is present, both the chassis ATU and the external ATU are
bypassed and antenna tuning does not take place. The ATU sequencer
also monitors the external PA/ATU interlock signal from the Vehicular
Adapter to see whether or not the external PA and ATU are present. -
When the tune start signal is received from the ECCM Module, the ATU
sequencer sends the tune signal to the servo amplifier. This enables
the servo amplifier to home the variable capacitor and variable induc-
tor of the chassis ATU. The homing signal from the ATU sequencer is
active until the servo amplifier has homed the variable capacitor and
inductor. The servo amplifier lets the ATU sequencer know when homing
is complete with the home C and home L signals. After homing is com-
plete, the ATU sequencer waits for the PTT signal from the ECCM Module
which triggers the ATU tuning phase. When ATU tuning is complete, the
servo amplifier sends the tune end signal to the ATU sequencer. The
PTT signal is also used to develop the RX/TX control voltages for the
chassis relay assembly and the interface assembly. The ECCM Module
sends the FH mode enable signal to the ATU sequencer when the FH mode
is activated. The FH/normal signal is routed to the RF translator.
The test mode and CW mode signals from the synthesizer are processed
to provide test enable and CW enable signals. The 25 W power level
signal from the GMB assembly is used to generate the full/reduced
power signal for the audio IF. The ATU sequencer monitors the fail

and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) status signals from the GMB
assembly, the power supply status signal from the power supply, and
the over-current protection signal from the front panel-PA. If any
of these signals indicate a failure, a fail status is generated and
routed to the ECCM Module. When in the vehicular configuration, the
PTT and tune signals are routed to the external PA/ATU via the Vehicu-
lar Adapter. Tuning and fault status signals are sent back to the ATU
sequencer (i.e. external ATU tune end, external ATU fault, external PA
fault, external home C and L ) .
f. Servo Amplifier A1A2A6. The servo amplifier provides the cir-

cuits for triggering and controlling the tuning of the chassis ATU.
Two servo amplifier stages provide the capacitor motor and inductor
motor drive current. The servo amplifiers are controlled by phase
error and resistive error signals from the chassis directional coupler
and the homing signal from the ATU sequencer. The tune signal from
the ATU sequencer activates the servo amplifiers through the power
control circuit. The tune signal also activates the 150 kHz oscilla-
tor. The 150 kHz switch signal provides additional control of the
capacitor and inductor motors. A comparator circuit monitors the
forward power input from the chassis directional coupler and the out-
puts of the servo amplifiers. The tune end signal results when there
is presence of forward power and no motor drive at the servo amplifier
outputs. Reflected power from the chassis directional coupler is
compared to an internal reference to develop the chassis ATU VSWR
status. Reflected power is routed to the front panel-PA. The C and L
switch signals are processed by transistor switch circuits to provide
the home C and L signals for the ATU sequencer.

g. Chassis A1A2A20. The chassis provides the mounting and protec-

tion for internal components of the R/E. The chassis contains many
subassemblies having complete functions.
(1) Filter Amplifier Assembly A1A2A20A16. The filter amplifier

assembly includes the harmonic filters and the directional
coupler. The TX RF signal from the front panel-PA passes
through the harmonic filters and the directional coupler to
the relay assembly. The harmonic filters contain six low-
pass filters that cover the 2 to 3 0 MHz range. The har-
monics filter select signal from the synthesizer determines
which filter is selected. The directional coupler develops
the forward/reflected power and the phase/resistive error
voltages.
(2) Relay Assembly A1A2A20A14. The relay assembly is controlled

by the 50 ohm select signal from the ECCM Module and the
RX/TX control signal from the ATU sequencer. During trans-
mission, the relay assembly routes the TX RF signal to the
chassis ATU or directly to the DIP 50 ohm connector on the
front panel-PA. During reception, the incoming RX RF signal
is routed from the chassis ATU or the DIP 50 ohm connector
through the filter module assembly to the GMB assembly.
(3) Chassis ATU. The chassis ATU includes the transformer

assembly, the capacitor and inductor motors, and the vari-
able capacitor and variable inductor. When the chassis ATU
is not bypassed, RX/TX RF passes through the chassis ATU to
the antenna switch on the front panel-PA. The capacitor and
inductor motors are controlled by the 150 kHZ switch signal
and the motor drive current from by the servo amplifier.
The C and L switch signals tell the servo amplifier when the
variable capacitor and inductor are homed.
(4) Frequency Standard. The frequency standard is a temperature

controlled crystal oscillator (TCXO) that supplies the
frequency reference (7.92 MHz) for the synthesizer.
(5) Interface Assembly A1A2A20A18. The interface assembly con-

tains the RX/TX relay. The relay is controlled by the RX/TX
control signal from the ATU sequencer. Upon transmit, +24
Vdc (TX enable) from the Battery Case/Charger or the Vehicu-
lar Adapter is routed to the GMB assembly and the front
panel-PA.

(6) GMB Assembly A1A2A20A12. The GMB assembly includes the

power level memory, the fail data processor and the switch
relays.
(a) Power Level Memory. Power level control, 50 ohm select
and external PA bypass signals from the ECCM Module pro-
gram the power level memory. The power level memory sends
5W/10W/25W power level signals to the front panel-PA and
ATU sequencer. When in the vehicular configuration, the
external PA interlock signal enables the power level
memory to send 1/4 - 1/1 power select signals to the
external PA through the Vehicular Adapter. The external
PA bypass signal is activated when low power is selected
in the vehicular configuration. The external PA fault
signal notifies the fail data processor of a failure. A
10 kHz signal from the synthesizer is used to synchronize
the power level memory circuit. The table shows the power
level relationships when in the vehicular and manpa'ck
configurations.

(b) Fail Data Processor. The fail data processor monitors the
status of each major assembly. It sends a fail signal to
the ATU sequencer and sends serial fail data to the ECCM
Module. The BIT is initiated by the test enable signal
from the ATU sequencer. The serial fail enable signal
tells the fail data processor that the ECCM Module is
ready to accept the serial fail data.
(c) Switch Relays. Switch relays are activated by the TX

enable signal from the chassis interface assembly. The
77 to 104.9 MHz and 75.5/74.5 MHz injection frequencies
from the synthesizer are switched to the first and second
mixers of the RF translator. The 500 kHz TX IF from the
audio IF and the RX RF signal from the chassis filter
module assembly are switched to the first mixer of the RF
translator. During reception, the 500 kHz RX IF signal
from the RF translator is switched to the audio IF.
During transmission, the 500 kHz TX RF signal from the RF
translator is switched through the 2 to 30 MHz filter to
the front panel-PA.
1-30
(d) VSWR Status and Homing Signals. The GMB assembly creates
a VSWR status signal for the ATU sequencer by combining
the chassis ATU VSWR status and external ATU fault sig-
nals. The home C and home L signals from the servo ampli
fier are routed through the GMB assembly to the ATU
sequencer. When in the vehicular configuration, the home
C and home L signals are controlled by the external ATU
home signal.

(7) Power supply A1A2A20A13. The power supply is formed by

three switch regulators driven by a 50 kHz oscillator. The
+24 Vdc input from the Battery Case/Charger or the Vehicular
Adapter is applied to the inputs of the +5 Vdc, the +7 Vdc,
and the +12 and -12 Vdc switch regulators. The switch regu-
lator outputs are applied to current sensors which allow the
maximum current supplied to be set. Low pass filters reduce
unwanted switching transients and noise at the outputs. The
voltage regulator provides regulated +5 Vdc for the 50 kHz
oscillator and monitors the +24 Vdc input for overvoltage
conditions. Power supply status is routed to the GMB assem-
bly and the ATU sequencer if the input voltage rises above
+30 Vdc. The 50 kHz oscillator receives its drive frequency
from the synthesizer.

Unit level troubleshooting procedures for the RT are performed in

the system and are simplified by both on-line and off-line built-in-
test (BIT) and fault detection capabilities. On-line BIT provides
continuous monitoring of RT status during operation. Off-line BIT is
initiated automatically upon power- up or from the front panel keypad
(para 2-12).
• If a fault is detected, the FAIL indicator on the display

will light and/or the display will show the message:

APPENDIX B
MAINTENANCE ALLOCATION CHART
Section I. INTRODUCTION
B-l. GENERAL
, This appendix provides a summary of the maintenance operations for
Receiver-Transmitter, Radio RT-1511/GRC-215. It authorizes levels of
maintenance for specific maintenance functions on repairable items and
components and the tools and equipment required to perform each func-
tion. This appendix may be used as an aid in planning maintenance
operations.
B-2. MAINTENANCE FUNCTION
Maintenance functions will be limited to and defined as follows:

a. Inspect. To determine the serviceability of an item by compar-
ing its physical, mechanical, and/or electrical characteristics with
established standards through examination.
b. Test. To verify serviceability and to detect incipient failure

by measuring the mechanical or electrical characteristics of an item
and comparing those characteristics with prescribed standards.
c. Service. Operations required periodically to keep an item in

proper operating condition, i.e., to clean (decontaminate), to
preserve, to drain, to paint, or to replenish fuel, lubricants,
hydraulic fluids, or compressed air supplies.
d. Adjust. To maintain, within prescribed limits, by bringing

into proper or exact position, or by setting the operating character-
istics to the specified parameters.
e. Aline. To adjust specified variable elements of an item to

bring about optimum or desired performance.
f_. Calibrate. To determine and cause corrections to be made or to
be adjusted on instruments or test measuring and diagnostic equipments
used in precision measurement. Consists of comparisons of two instru-
ments, one of which is a certified standard of known accuracy, to
detect and adjust any discrepancy in the accuracy of the instrument
being compared.
g. Install. The act of emplacing, seating, or fixing into posi-

tion an item, part, module (component or assembly) in a manner to
allow the proper functioning of the equipment or system.
h. Replace. The act of submitting a serviceable like type part,
B-l
subassembly, or module (component or assembly) for an unserviceable

counterpart.
i. Repair. The application of maintenance services (inspect,
test, service, adjust, aline, calibrate, replace) or other maintenance
actions (welding, grinding, riveting, straightening, facing, remachin-
ing, or resurfacing) to restore serviceability to an item by correct-
ing specific damage, fault, malfunction, or failure in a part, sub-
assembly, module (component or assembly), end item, or system.
j.. Overhaul. That maintenance effort (service/action) necessary

to restore an item to a completely serviceable/operational condition
as prescribed by maintenance standards (i.e., DMWR) in appropriate
technical publications. Overhaul is normally the highest degree of
maintenance performed by the Army. Overhaul does not normally return
an item to like new condition.
k. Rebuild. Consists of those services/action necessary for the
restoration of unserviceable equipment to a like new condition in
accordance with original manufacturing standards. Rebuild is the
highest degree of materiel maintenance applied to Army equipment. The
rebuild operation includes the act of returning to zero those age
measurements (hours, miles, etc.) considered in classifying Army
equipments/components.
B-3. COLUMN ENTRIES
a. Column 1. Group Number. Column 1 lists group numbers, the

purpose of which is to identify components, assemblies, subassemblies,
and modules with the next higher assembly.
b. Column 2. Component/Assembly. Column 2 contains the noun names
of components, assemblies, subassemblies, and modules for which
maintenance is authorized.
c. Column 3. Maintenance Functions. Column 3 lists the functions

to be performed on the item listed in column 2. When items are listed
without maintenance functions, it is solely for purpose of having the
group numbers in the MAC and RPSTL coincide.
d. Column 4 f Maintenance Level. Column 4 specifies, by the list
ing of a work time figure in the appropriate subcolumn(s), the lowest
level of maintenance authorized to perform the function listed in
column 3. This figure represents the active time required to perform
that maintenance function at the indicated level of maintenance. If
the number or complexity of the tasks within the listed maintenance
function vary at different maintenance levels, appropriate work time
figures will be shown for each category. The number of task-hours
specified by the work time figure represents the average time
required to restore an item (assembly, subassembly, component, module,
end item, or system) to a serviceable condition under typical field
operating conditions. This time includes preparation time, trouble-
shooting time, and quality assurance/quality control time in addition
to the time required to perform the specific tasks identified for the
B-2
maintenance functions authorized in the maintenance allocation chart.

Subcolumns of column 4 are as follows:
UNIT
C - Operator/Crew
0 - Organizational/Unit
INTERMEDIATE
F - Direct Support
H - General Support
L - Specialized Repair Activity (SRA)

D - Depot
e. Column 5. Tools and Equipment. Column 5 specifies by code,
those common tool sets (not individual tools) and special tools, test,
and support equipment required to perform the designated function.
£. Column 6. Remarks. Column 6 contains an alphabetic code which
leads to the remark in section IV, Remarks, which is pertinent to the
item opposite the particular code.
B-4. TOOL AND TEST EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS (SECT. Ill)
a. Tool or Test Equipment Reference Code. The numbers in this

column coincide with the numbers used in the tools and equipment
column of the MAC. The numbers indicate the applicable tool or test
equipment for the maintenance functions.
b. Maintenance Level. The codes in this column indicate the

maintenance level allocated to use the tool or test equipment.
c. Nomenclature• This column lists the noun name and nomenclature
of the tools and test equipment required to perform the maintenance
functions.
d. National/NATO Stock Number. This column lists the National/
NATO stock number of the specific tool or test equipment.
e. Tool Number. This column lists the manufacturer's part number
of the tool followed by the Federal Supply Code for manufacturers
(5-digit) in parentheses.

Section II. DEFINITION OF UNUSUAL TERMS
ATTENUATION - The decrease in amplitude of a signal during its trans-

mission from one point to another.
AUDIO - Frequencies which can be heard by the human ear, usually
between 15 and 20 Hz.
BIT - The smallest binary element of information.
CARRIER - A continuous frequency capable of being modulated or impres-

sed with a signal.
COMPARATOR - A circuit which compares two signals and supplies an

indication of agreement or disagreement.
CONFIGURATION - Relative arrangement of parts or components.
DEMODULATE - To recover the wave with which the carrier was originally
modulated.
DUTY CYCLE - The amount of time a device operates, as opposed to its

idle time.
HARMONIC - A sine wave having a frequency that is an integral multiple

of the fundamental frequency. For example, a wave with twice the
frequency of the fundamental is called the second harmonic.
HERTZ - A unit of frequency equal to one cycle per second.
HOME C SIGNAL - The signal that commands the ATU to home the capacitor
element of the ATU.
HOME L SIGNAL - The signal that commands the ATU to home the inductor
element of the ATU.
HOMING - To tune capacitor and inductor elements of the ATU to initial
values.
INJECTION FREQUENCIES - Frequencies introduced to the mixer stage of a
radio for the purpose of modulation/demodulation.
INTERLOCK - A circuit in which the action of one portion of the
circuit is dependent upon the condition of an associated circuit.
LOWER SIDEBAND - The lower frequency or group of frequencies produced
by an amplitude-modulation process.
MODULATE - To vary the amplitude or frequency of a wave by impressing
one wave on another wave.
GLOSSARY-4
Section II. DEFINITION OF UNUSUAL TERMS (Cont.)
SELECTIVITY - The characteristic which determines the extent to which

the desired signal can be differentiated from disturbances of other
frequencies.
SENSITIVITY - The minimum input signal required in a radio receiver to

produce a specified output signal having a specified signal-to-noise
ratio.
SIDETONE - The sound of your own transmission in your headset or hand-

set.
SPURIOUS SIGNAL - An unwanted signal generated either in the equipment
itself or externally and heard (or seen) as noise.
SUPPRESSION - Elimination of unwanted signals or interference.

2-25 2-28 Recommend that the installation antenna alignment

procedure be changed throughout to specify a 2° IFF
antenna lag rather than 1o
REASON: Experience has shown that wfSônly a 1° lag,

the antenna servo system is too sensitive to wind
gusting in excess of 25 knots, and has a tendency to
rapidly accelerate and dec^Btratte as it hunts, causing
strain to the drive train. Hunting is minimized by
adjusting the lag to ^2? without degradation of
operation.
3-10 3-3 3-1 Item 5, Function col Change "2 db" to "3db."
REASON: Th djustment procedure for the TRANS POWER

FAULT in« calls for a 3 db (500 watts) adjust-
ment to e TRANS POWER FAULT indicator.
