TOKYO JAPAN. | GENERAL: The model FR-DX-400 Communication Recciver together with its accessories is designed to be used for SSB, CW, АМ or FM reception on amateur bands in the frequency range from 1.6 Me to 148 Мс. A citizen band (27 Mc) may also be covered as well as WWV. Basically, it is a double conversion superhetcrodyne (triple conversion for VIIF bands) receiver employing crystal controlled high frequency oscillators, highly stable variable oscillator tuning the same range linearlly on all bands and for selectivity, the MECHANICAL FILTERs and T-notch filter at the 455 Ke IF stage. | A precise instrument type double gear driven dial together with an adjustable scale on the main tuning dial knob provides casy and accurate frequency readings on all bands within approxi- mately 1 Ke. The receiver provides a wide variety of operations, such as rejection tuning, slow/fast AVC time constants, squelch circuit, crystal controlled operation, monitor circuit, and a 100 Ke/25 Ke calibrator. The receiver can be used as a transceiver in conjunction with our FL-DX-SSB Transmitter.

BAT (ES Convertor | Г ______ — Lo 1 PT | 100KC 25KC | | Marker | Fig. 1 PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION The block diagram provides you with a better understanding of this receiver. Double conver- sion is adopted with injection voltage for the first mixer provided by a crystal controlled oscillator. A tunable IF of 500 Кс range is used to couple the first and second mixer. Injection voltage for the second mixer is provided by a Variable Frequency Oscillator with a tuning range of 500 Ke ganged to tunable IF tuning capacitors. The 455 Ke output frequency is coupled through second IF stage to separate AM, SSB, and FM detectors. Injection voltage to the product detector is provided by a crystal controlled BFO, RF AND MIXER CIRCUIT: A signal from the antenna passes through a trap coil which minimizes interference caused by the signals in the first IF range to the tuned circuit, and is applied to the control grid of the RF amplifier tube, V101, 6BZ6. The tuning capacitor for RF amplifier and first mixer is ganged and linked to the preselector tuning knob on front panel. The required tuning range of these tuning circuits for band spread are obtained by switching appropriate values of fixed capacitance in parallel with coils. The amplified signal from V101 is coupled to the grid of V102A, 6U8, first mixer. The injection voltage from V102B, 6U8, is coupled to the cathode of V102A. The output signal from the first mixer is coupled through L110, tunable IF transformer (5354.5 Ke—5954.5 Kc) to the grid of the second mixer V103, 6BE6, with VFO injection voltage applied to the cathode of this tube. E SECOND IF AND DETECTOR CIRCUIT: The output signal from the second mixer is connected either to one of four mechanical filters МЕЪ MF2, MF3, or MF4 (МЕ! and MF4 not supplied). The mechanical filter МЕ? is centered to — 2 — 459 Ke with a pass band of 2.4 Ke, and is selected for SSB or narrow band AM reception, while MF3 with pass band of 5Kc is selected for wideband AM reception. МЕ? is selected for CW reception also when MF1 is not supplied. МЕТ with pass band of 600 cps can be installed on the filter assembly board for better CW reception. MF4 with pass band of 24Ke can be installed to improve skirt response for FM reception. Output from the filter assembly is amplified through V601B. The notch filter is composed of coil L 602 and capacitor VC601. The rejection notch occurs at the resonant frequency of this tuned circuit, and is centered at 455Ke. The variable capacitor VC601 is linked to the rejection tuning control with allows the rejection frequency to be moved accross IF pass band. Optimum Q and depth of notch is determined by the proper adjust- ment of potentiometer VR601. VC601 is so designed that shorts the filter circuit on the OFT posi- tion. Output from Q multiplier is then amplified through the second amplifiers V104 and V105, 6BA6s. The cathode of V104 is combined to the cathode of V101, and connected to RF gain control potentiometer, VR101. S meter circuit is connected from B supply to the plate circuit of V105, 6BA6, of which the plate current is decreased by the application of AGC voltage to its grid circuit. The output singnal from IF amplifier is coupled to the ring demodulator circuit. It is also coupled to AM detector and AGC dicde D101, 151007, and to FM limiter V501A, 608. BFO injec- tion voltage is applied to the ring demodulator for CW and SSB reception. OSCILLATOR CIRCUITS: This receiver contains four oscillators. They are high frequency crystal oscillator, variable frequency oscillator, beat frequency oscillator, and 100 Kc crystal calibrator. High frequency oscillator, VIE, 608 „provides injection voltage for the first mixer. The crystal frequency is always 59585 Kc re ES {ower ee ot the selected band. The secondary winding of L112 couples injection voltage to the first mixer tube cathode circuit and furnishes a DC return to the ground for the first mixer. | | The VFO utilizes two transistors, 2SC372s, one of which oscillates at the frequency of 4900 Кс to 550 Ke, and the other works as a buffer stage to prevent loading of the oscillator circuit. The output from the transistor buffer is coupled to the grid of V107, 6BZ6 which works as second buffer to prevents the loading by cable capacity when operated in transceiver service. Supply voltage for the oscillator is stabilized by a regulator consisting of zener diode D113 and resistor R147. The VFO output voltage from V107 is coupled to the first grid of second mixer, V103, 6BE6. V108, 12AT7 is used for the BFO crystal oscillator, and the injection voltage is supplied to the ring demodulator through L117. One of either cathode circuits is connected to the ground by the MODE switch for appropriate sideband operation. For CW reception, BFO oscillator is also selected by the MODE switch to reduce the interference caused by near-by signal. These crystals provide the proper BFO frequency relationship to the mechanical filter pass band to generate optimum audio response from the ring demodulator. The crystal calibrator circuit provides marker signals at multiples of 100 Ke by FUNCTION switch at CAL 100 Kc position. At 25 Кс position, marker signals are generated by a multivibrator for accurate calibration between 100Ke marker points. Variable capacitor TC301 provides for adjustment zero beat with WWV. The output signal from the circuit is coupled to the receiver antenna circuits. CONTROL CIRCUITS: Signal voltage is coupled from L115 to a diode D109 and D100, rectifed to produce automatic gain control voltage. Generation of AGC voltage is delayed until the signal voltage at the diode exceeds the bias voltage determined by R148 and R157. C187, when switched into the circuit, presents a longer RC time constant allowing for a smoothly developed AGC signal. The AGC voltage is applied to the control grid of the RF amplifier and IF amplifier tubes. Manual control of RF gain is accomplished by changing the cathode bias for RF amplifier and first IF amplifier tubes. A voltage divider circuit consisting of resistor R104 and RF GAIN control is connected across the B plus voltage line. At the maximum gain setting, this circuit produces proper operating bias for the RF and first IF amplifier tubes. At lower control settings increased bias is provided which reduces the gain. The DC return of the RF and first IF amplifier tubes is connected through the RF GAIN control to the MUTE terminal. The MUTE terminal is connected to MONITOR control and FUNCTION switch S101C. "When the FUNCTION switch is placed in the REC position, a ground of the MUTE terminal causes the receiver to opcrate in a normal manner. At STBY position, DC return is made through MONTTIOR Control VR106. At the maximum setting of this control, MUTE terminal is connected to the ground to provide the DC return. At the proper settings of the MONITOR controls, the receiver gain recovers to monitor transmitter signals. The Jowest settings of the MONITOR control produces cutoff bias to RF and first IF tubes, thus muting the receiver, Rectified DC voltage from D101 is coupled through ‘R507 to the grid of squelch control tube V501B, 608. V501B is so biased by VR105 that the tube is cutoff when signal is not received. When the rectified DC voltage to the grid exceeds the cutoff bias, V501B conducts and pro- _ vides DC return for the cathode circuit of the first audio amplifier tube V106A, 6BM8. Lowest setting of SQUELCII control permit the receiver to opetate in a normal manner. AUDIO AND POWER SUPPLY CIRCUITS: Audio voltage from the appropriate detector is selected by MODE switch, S103C and is coupled to the peak noise limiter circuit consisting of diodes D102 and D103. This limiter circuit is shorted by $104 when it is not used. Signal from the limiter circuit is amplified by V106A and coupled through AUDIO GAIN control, VR104 to the grid of V106B. Plate circuit of V106B is connected to an output transfermer T101. Two audio outputs are provided. A 4 ohm output for the speaker, and a headphone jack is connected to the 4 ohm terminal. When the headphone is used, the speaker output is disconnected. A 600 ohm terminal may be used for antitrip output or phone patch. The built-in power supply furnishes filament, plate, and transistor voltages for the receiver. The tube heaters and pilot lamps are connected in parallel, and the voltage is supplied from the 6.3 volt winding. Plate voltage is supplied by the full wave rectifier unit D111. Voltage for the transistors is supplied by the full wave rectifier unit D112, and stabilized by the zener diode, D113. ож — a pa INSTALLATION Before connecting the receiver to the AC line, examine for visible damage. If the receiver has been damaged in shipment, notify the agent to receive warranty repairs. Check tubes and crystals for proper seating in sockets, and check tuning controls and switches for freedom of action. The receiver power transformer can be operated on either 100/110/117/200/220 or 234 volts AC, check that the transformer connections (stamped on the rear apron of the chassis) are correct for the line voltage available. Figure 2. shows the location of jacks, socket, and terminal for external connections to the receiver. J101 is a coax connector. J104 is an audio output terminal, and 4 ohm is for a speaker. Terminal marked “M” is for the mute circuit. To connect the receiver for mute operation, a means of shorting of M terminal to ground while receiving must be applied. Opening this M terminal mutes the receiver. A set of normally closed contacts on a relay which is keyed with the transmitter may be used for this purpose. To use this mute circuit, the receiver must be operated in the STBY pm + -Ф-- — a à “DA 2 a езыщы ee te en о A AP —— << ы — ль position with MONITOR control at fully counterclockwise position. 600 ohm audio output may be used to supply antitrip voltage to the transmitter used together. The phone jack on the front panel is connected to the 4 ohm terminal, therefore, best results will be obtained if headphones used are of 4 to 16 ohms impedance. The speaker is disabled when the headphones are plugged in. Figure 3 shows a complete station interconnection for a FR-DX-400 receiver, FL-DX-400 transmitter, and FL-DX-2000 linear amplifier. When the VFO output jack is connected to the transmitter for transceive operation, it may be necessary to adjust L116 to compensate for the detuning effect of the coaxial cable.

FUNCTION: REC. ANL: OFF. MODE: Desired sideband. RF/AF GAIN: RF gain control fully clockwise and AF gain to the 12 o’clock position. — 6 — AGC: SLOW. BAND: Desired frequency band. CLARIFIER: 12 o’clock position. PRESELECTOR : For maximum noise or signal output. VFO SELECT: NOR. Tune in signal with the main tuning knob and adjust AF GAIN for desired audio output level. When listening to strong signals, RF GAIN control may be used to reduce set noise under no sıgnal conditions. Clarifier control may be used for a fine tuning of the main dial. CW RECEPTION. Set the controls as described in SSB reception, except a setting of the MODE switch to СУ CW2. Center the desired signal in the receiver pass band, and then switch to the CW1 or CW2 mode depending on the location of interfering signals. Tune the upper side or lower side against the desired signal, to reduce interference. The clarifier can be used as a pitch control of the audio Output signal. For breakin CW operation, the AGC control should be set to OFF position and the RF GAIN control decreased to prevent overload. Adjust the AF GAIN control to provide the desired audio output. AM RECEPTION. Set the controls as described in SSB reception. Set the MODE switch to AM position and AGC switch to FAST. High fidelity will be obtained with the MODE switch in the AM WIDE position. Under crowded band conditions, switch to AM NARROW to climinate interference. The CLARIFIER can be used to select one of the sidebands having least interference. Under heavy noise conditions, ANL will be helpful in reducing the noise. An interfering heterodyne or CW signal may be reduced in level or eliminated by the opera- tion of the REJECTION TUNING control. At the OFF position, the tuning capacitor is shorted to disable the circuit. Clockwise rotation of this control from the OFF position moves the rejection notch across the IF passband, When it is not needed, this control must be placed in the OFF position to avoid the distortion of the receiving signal due to narrower passband. When the receiver is initially placed in operation, it may be necessary to touch up the e adjust- ment section of this hand book. TRANSCEIVE OPERATION WITH FL SERIES TRANSMITTER. Connect the cables as shown in the illustration following page. Set VFO select switch on FL-transmitter to TRANSCEIVE position. Set the BAND switches to the same desired band and both MODE switches to the same posi- tion (either USB, LSB or CW). Tune both receiver and transmitter as in normal operation. Both the transmit and receive frequency is controlled with the receiver VFO. Due to the frequency tolerance of the HF heterodyne crystals, it may be necessary to adjust the CLARIFIER control to zero beat transmitting and receiving frequencies. If the transmitted frequency is changed by any great amount, be sure to redip the PA plate current and check the loading. Do not attempt operation in transceive service with any other transmitter not having the same frequency mixing scheme as FL-transmitter. For transceive service with FL-200-B transmitter in CW and USB modes, it is necessary to change the sideband crystal of the transmitter, from 8546.5 Kc to 8543.5 Kc. Dial lock lever under the MAIN tuning knob is to adjust dial touch and it tightens the touch when rotated clockwise direction. MAINTENANCE AND ALIGNMENT. The FR-DX-400 receiver has been aligned and calibrated at the factory with proper test equip- ments and will not require realignment for a long period of operation. Service or replacement of a major components may require subsequent realignment, but do not attempt to make any adjust- ment unless the operation of the receiver is fully understood. CABINET REMOVAL. Disconnect all power and external connections, and remove two screws under the cabinet and six painted screws located at the front edge of the cabinet. From the rear, push the receiver chassis forward and slide the chassis and panel assembly out of the cabinet. IMPORTANT: DO NOT LUBRICATE THE VFO GEAR ASSEMBLY. ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE. The alignment of the receiver can be accomplished using a signal generator and VTVM. However, complete alignment may be accomplished using the crystal calibrator as a signal generator and the S-meter as a peak indicator. 455 KC IF ALIGNMENT. a. Set MODE switch to USB, and center the calibrate signal at 14.2 MC in the IF passband. If the calibrator signal is stronger than the S-meter reading of S4, use a higher band such as the 15 or 10 meter band. b. Adjust the slugs of L114 and L115 for peak meter reading. с. If a signal generator is used for this alignments, unsolder C124 from pin 1 of V103, connect generator to pin 7 of V103, and adjust frequency to center of filter pass band. Align as described above, disconnect signal generator, and replace C124. T-NOTCH FILTER ALIGNMENT, a. Check REJECTION TUNING knob position. It should be at the OFF position. b.

Set REJECTION TUNING knob to midscale (at 12 o’clock position). d. Alternately adjust VR601 and L601 for maximum depth of notch as indicated by minimum S- meter reading. If the circuit exhibits a tendency to ring or oscillate, back off slightly VR601. TUNABLE IF ALIGNMENT. a. Set VFO frequency to 200 kc and tune the receiver to calibrator signal on a band which pro- vides a signal level of approximately S3 in either USB or LSB. b. Adjust the slugs of L110 for peak S-meter reading. с. If a signal generator is used for this alignment, disable the heterodyne oscillator by removing the crystal for the band used. Connect the signal generator to pin 9 of V102, and set to 5,555 Kc, Tune the receiver to the generator signal at approximately 200 on the dial, and align as described above. VFO DIAL CALIBRATION. a. Set the BAND switch to any band and function switch to CAL 100KC, and tune the calibrate signal to zero beat at 500, on the higher end of the dial. b. Set the 50KC subdial to 0/50 position while holding the dial knob firmly. — 9 — c. Tune the dial to 0, lower end. d. Adjust TC105 slightly to zero beat. e. Tune the dial to 500 higher end, and adjust L113 slightly to zero beat to the calibrator signal. f. Repeat this procedures until the VFO is calibrated at both end. BFO ALIGNMENT. Connect a RF probe of the VIVM between the secondary of L117 and ground, and adjust the slug of L117 for maximum output. Back off slightly on the slug until the VTVM shows 70% of the maximum reading. HIGH FREQUENCY OSCILLATOR ALIGNMENT. Connect a RF probe of the VIVM between the hot end of the secondary of L112 and ground. Set the BAND switch to 10 D band, and adjust L112 for maximum VTVM reading. If the crystals are not equipped for the 10D band, do not touch L112. Change the BAND switch to lower bands and adjust the appropriate capacitors (TC103-TC104) for maximum VTVM reading. RF CIRCUIT ALIGNMENT. a. Tune to the calibrator signal at 1.7 Mc with the MODE switch in either USB or LSB position. Connect a 47 ohm resistor or a dummy load to the antenna connector. Set the PRESELECTOR to 1 position. ADJ р yer C/O © b. Tune to the calibrator signal at 3.5 Mc, and adjust slugs L103 and L107 for peak S-meter reading. c, Tune to the calibrator signal at 6.9 Mc, and adjust slugs L104 and L108 for peak S-meter reading. d.

Connect an antenna to the antenna connector and tune to WWV and adjust TC-101C and TC-102C for peak S-meter reading. — 10 — E a S.METER ZERO ADJUSTMENT. Set the receiver to the middle of any band, and peak the PRESELECTOR for maximum output. Set RF-GAIN control to maximum, and short antenna terminal. Adjust S-meter ADJ control Gn the rear apron of the chassis until the S-meter reads zero. TROUBLE SHOOTING Most cases of trouble can be traced to defective tubes. Substitution of new tubes will some- times clear an obscure case. Intermittent trouble conditions in tubes can be usually be discovered by lightly tapping the tube envelope. Occasionally, tube socket terminals will become dirty or corroded causing intermittent condition. When this situation is suspected, remove the tube and apply a few drops of contact cleaner to the socket pins, and work tube up and down in the socket a few times. A logical process of elimination in conjuction with schematic diagram will aid in isolating troubles. Attached tables show typical voltage and resistance readings at each tube socket terminal, and these arc the best aid in trouble shooting. Bear in mind that any of these values will vary slightly due to line voltage and to normal tolerance in components and the measuring equipment used. Following is typical cases of troubles and a trouble shooting guide. TUBE AND DIAL LIGHT OUT: Blown fuse is probable case. Usually indicates short on the heater | wiring, high voltage circuit, or silicon rectifier defective. TUBES LIGHT BUT NO AUDIO: Check high voltage at filter condenser. If normal, check voltage of pin 6 and 9 of V106. Check headphone jack and speaker leads. Check diodes D-102 and 103. If OK this far, switch to AM detector and SSB detector. If one is OK but not the other, check the diodes in the detector circuit. AUDIO OK BUT STILL NO OUTPUT; For troubles in the RF and IF stages, you can use S- meter as well as audio to check troubles. Check on several positions of both band switch and mode switch. If the set works normally on some mode but not others, the trouble is confined to the filter assembly. If the set works normally on some bands but not on other, the troubles may be in RF amplifier, Ist mixer or x-tal oscillator. If its behavior is the same on all mode and bands it may be in either RF or Ш stages. Touch pin 1 of V104 with VTVM lead tip” Should produce click from the speaker? Is this OK, troubles may be in RF stages. If this is not, troubles is in IF stages. Check V104 and V105. Check VFO injection voltage at pin 1 of V103 with RF probe. This is about 2 volts. Touch test lead to pin 1 of V103. Using this lead as an antenna, you should hear noise. If not, check voltages of V103 and V107. If the noise does come up at this point, the troubles are in RF stages. If the troubles are nearer the front end of the receiver than Vi03, you should be hearing some tube noise even if no signals. While listening to this noise, pull,out V102 from socket. If this stage working normally, there should be a marked decrease in the noise. If there is not, check voltages in this stages. A test lead attached to pin 9 of V102 should bring in some of the stronger signal if the stage is working normally. In this case, troubles must be in RF amplifier stage. This stage by stage technique should enable you to isolate the trouble in almost all case where the receiver is dead. If the complaint is lack of sensitivity though the set is still operative, a similar retracing from the audio stage back to front end should be used. Remember that troubles confined to one of two bands must be in V101, V102 or V103. If the S-meter fails to read correctly check AVC circuit.
