HOWEVER, THE NOTE TEXTPRESENTS THE MOST FREQUENTLYREPORTED ER- RORS INANTENNA SYSTEM INSTALMTION. WARNING DEATH CAN OCCUR IF AN ANTENNA COMES IN CONTACT WITH ELECTRIC POWER LINES OR EXPOSED ELECTRICAL WARNING WIRING. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN INSTALLING AN- TENNAS. KEEP ANTENNAS AWAY FROM POWER LINES. CAUTION HIGH LEVEL RF RADIATION PERSONNEL MUS TNOT BE NEAR A RADIATING ANTENNA. LOCATE THE ANTENNA AS FAR AS POSSIBLE FROM PEOPLE AND EQUIP- MENT SUSCEPTIBLE T0 RF RADIATION. DO NOT MOUNTANTEN- NA DIRECTLY ON THE TRANSMITTER. REFER TO ANSI C951 “LIM- ITS ON NON —IONIZING RADIATIO ”. Antenna Assembly. Follow the manufacturer‘s instructions carefully. If no inslruelions were included with the antenna. call or write the antenna manufacturer for instructions. Antennas which have phasing or stacking cables must be assembled carefully to avoid phase reversal or signal cancellation. Transmission Line Connector Assembly. Do not use RG—58 U or RG—8 U cable with antennas. The cable has too much loss at VHF and UHF frequencies. Follow the instructions furnished by the manufacturer when cutling coaxial cable. Inspect the cable ends for small melal fragments which can short—circuil the line inside the connector assembly. Check the line for a short—circuil mnditicn using an ohmmcter after each connector is installed. Pressurized line should be checked for several days under pressure befare installation on a tower to ensure thal Ihere are no leaks in the line or fillings. BMADCAEI' ELECTRONICS INC. 8 FCC ID: DIEM-405450 EXHIBI'H': Is 264 Moisture Prooflng Coax Connectors. Extreme care must be exercised with coaxial cable before and after connectors have been installed to ensure that moisture does not enter the line. Foam dielectric line can absorb moisture and is difficult to detect and remedy. Therefore, keep the line dry while in storage with the ends tightly capped. Coaxial splices, connectors, and fittings to be located outside should be made mechanically tight, then coated with a weatherproofing material over at least two layers of vinyl plastic electrical tape. Moisture problems in antenna systems are usually traced back to connectors which have NOT been properly taped. The Marti K—l Grounding and Weatherproofing Kit is recommended for use in each new antenna installation. Location and Groundlng of Coaxial Cable. NOTE DO NOT STRAP RECEIVER CABLE TO THE MAIN ANTENNA CABLE ATAN Y POINT. PMCE THE RECEIVER ANTENNA C0- NOTE AXIAL CABLE ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE TOWER FROM THE MAIN ANTENNA CABLE. Keep the RPU receiver coaxial cable as far from the broadcast transmitter RF output line as possible. Maintain max- imum separation between these cables at all points including the distance from the tower base to transmitter building as well as inside the building. System Grounding. It is essential that the RPU antenna system be properly grounded for safety and proper operation. Ensure the antenna system is properly grounded. Antenna Installatlon and Adjustment. The polarization of the transmit and receive antennas of the RPU system must be the same. For example, if the transmitting antenna is vertical, the receiving antenna must also be vertical. Each antenna should be attached to the tower using the proper side mount or top mount hardware. lfan RF watt meter is available, each antenna and trans- mission line can be checked for VSWR conditions when the transmitter is producing RF power. The VSWR should be less than 1.5 to 1 (15:1). Ifthe antenna system fails to give the predicated signal strength, check the following IICITISZ 1. Ensure the antenna is correctly assembled. 2. Ensure the antennas have same polarity. 3. Check VSWR of both the transmit and receive antennas. The VSWR should be less that 15:1. . Check for obstructions in the path such as trees and man—made structures. The base antenna must be high enough to provide a line—of—sight path to the remote transmitting antenna. OPERATION. MICROPHONE INPUT CONNECTORS. The INPUTI. INPUT 2. INPUT 3, and INPUT 4 microphone inputs are for a balanced 150 ohm dynamic micro- phone such as the Shure 36 1.0 equipped with a standard XLR-3 or A3M connector. INPUT 4 can operate at MIC LEVEL or HIGH LEVEL by means of a selector switch inside the transmitter (located just behind the INPUT 4 level control). The unit is factory configured for 3 HIGH LEVEL balanced input for use with tape canridge maA chines, etc. To conven INPUT 4 to a microphone level, remove top cover and operate the switch to MIC. BROADCASI‘ ELBCI'RONICS lNC. FCC ID: Doom-405.150 BCHIBIT it: ACCESSORY INPUT CONNECTOR. CAUTION TOTAL CONTROL CIRCUIT RESISTANCE MUSTNOT EXCEED 0.3 OHMS. CA UTION When INPUT 4 is operated to HI, audio can be routed to pins 2 and 3 on the ACCESSORY connector on the trans- mitter rear panel. The input level should be between 0.2 volts to 2.0 volts mts. The output impedance of the device connected to INPUT 4 should be 8 — 600 ohms. For unbalanced operation, ground pin 2 to pin 5 and connect the audio to pin 3. Use a standard 9—pin D—type female connector with a cover. The TRANSMlT control can be con- trolled remotely by using a low resistance switch circuit connected to pins 7 and 9. GAIN CONTROLS. The gain control located above each input connector provides independent channel level adjustment. Each gain po- tentiometer is adjusted as follows: 1. Connect an input source and operate at a normal audio level. 2. Turn gain control to the maximum counter—clockwise C‘OFF') position. 3. Operate the CONTROL switch to STDBY and‘allow METER to indicate 0 VU. Slowly increase gain (clockwise) until the meter begins deflecting to the left on audio peaks. Maximum deflection should be —3 to —5 W on the meter scale. This indicates 10070 modulation of the transmitter. Excessive gain cause high compression values which result in an annoying increase in background noise. A 600 ohm headset may be connected to the MONITOR jack to aid in arriving at the proper gain adjustment. In high noise environments, close—talk the microphone and reduce the microphone gain until a maximum of -2 VU is indicated. 4. Once the proper gain level is determined. do not change the level for that particular microphone or tape player. The broadcast quality compressor/limiter bUilI into the unit will maintain modulation at the maximum level while preventing over-modulation. CONTROL SWITCH. When the transmitter is not in use. operate the CONTROL switch to OFF. Operate Ihe switch to STDBY at least 2 minutes before transmission is anticipated. This activates all audio circuits. the MONITOR jack, and the meter. Current drain is minimal in STDBY. The CONTROL switch ts operated to TRANSMIT when transmission is de- sired. Return the CONTROL switch to STDBY or OFF as soon as a transmission is completed. ENCODE SWITCH. The internal subaudible encoder can be switched to ON or OFF by the front panel ENCODE switch. Encoding is used to activate a repeater station or tape recorder etc. MONITOR JACK. The MONITOR jack is active in the STDBY and TRANSMIT modes. A high—quality headset with a 300 ohm or higher impedance can be inserted into the MONITOR jack to perform adjustments or to monitor the transmitted audio quality. A miniature. single circuit, 1/8 inch phone plug should be used with the MONITOR jack. BROADCAST EIECI'RONICS INC. FCC ID: DIEM-405450 EXHIBIT it: IOL, 10 ANTENNA CONNECTOR.

To silence the receiver while transmitting, connect mute cable 585—038—2 to the ACCES- SORY connector on each unit. ANTENNA INDICATOR. The red ANTENNA indicator flashes to indicate a problem with the antenna when transmitting. The indicator will flash if the CONTROL switch is switched to “TRANSMIT‘ without an antenna connected. The indicator can also indicate a: l) detective antenna, coaxial cable, or connector or 2) improper antenna. Prolonged operation with these conditions can damage the transmitter. TEMP INDICATOR. The TEMP indicator flashes to indicate excessive operating temperatures within the transmitter. This can be caused by obstructed vent holes in the top or rear of the unit. a defective cooling fan, or antenna problems. If the TEMP indicator begins to flash, do not operate SRFT—40E until the cause of overheating is corrected. CHANNEL UP/DOWN SWITCHES. The channel UP/DOWN buttons allows the selection of up to 16 pre—selected channels. The channels are selected by depressing the UP or DOWN buttons as required to select the desired channel. AFC LOCK LED. The AFC LOCK indicator should be illuminated at all times when the transmitter is operating. This indicates the frequency synthesizer VCO is locked to the reference. PWR LED. The PWR indicator will illuminate to indicate ac power or an appropriate dc power source is applied to the unit. VU METER. The METER switch allows the monitoring of important transmitter parameters. The unit is equipped with a three position switch to display the following parameters. AFC Level. When the METER switch is operated to AFC LEVEL, the meter will indicate the AFC error correction voltage in the phase—locked loop. The operating range of the AFC error correction voltage is between —2 VU to +3 VU. Level errors greater than the normal range will require adjustment of the VCO center frequency (refer to MAINTENANCE in the following text). BROADCAST ELECTRONICS [NC FCCID: one 13-150 11 too-nan #: HF Output. When the METER switch is operated to RF OUTPUT, the meter will indicate the PA RF output power level. For a 40 watt output, the VU meter will indicate approximately 0 W 23 VU. Audio Compression. When the METER swilch is operated to AUDIO COMPRESSION, the meter will indicate the audio limit level. A normal audio compression indication is from 0 to -4 W. A meter value of —-S VU or greater indicates excessive compression. Reduce the amount of compression by reducing the audio input level. PROGRAMMING THE CHANNELS. The SRP’T-4UE is constructed for a specified center frequency when shipped from the factory. This center frequen- cy selection is factory programmed into channel I and allows the unit to be programmed for operation within a 22 MHz range ofthe frequency. Within this 4 MHz range, the unit can be programmed to operate on any frequency in 12.5 kHz increments. This results in approximately 320 available operating frequencies. These frequencies are re— corded in the PROGRAMMING DATA SHEETS shipped with the unit. Of the 320 available operating frequencies, up to 16 frequencies can be selected and assigned to operating channels in the unit. The unit can be programmed for 16 channels, 8 channels, 4 channels, or 2 channels. To program the unit for the desired number of channels and assign the frequencies to the channels, proceed as follows: 1. Remove the SRPT—4OE top cover. 2. Connect the unit ac line cord to an appropriate power receptacle. Ensure the CONTROL switch is opemted to OFF. 3. Refer to Figure 6 and locate the controller circuit board.

FCC TD: DDBSRP’I' 150 EXHIBIT 0: | Q g 13 AUDIO CIRCUIT BOARD 800—166AE. The audio circuit board performs several functions. Integrated circuit IC—l functions as a: 1) pre-emphasis amplif- er, 2) voltage-controlled attenuator, and 3) regulator/ripple rejector. I’m-emphasized audio from lC—IB is also routed to D2 — D3 which form an adjustable series peak-limiting circuit. This circuit is adjusted to limit only audio peaks from the compressor. The limiter circuit output is applied to a low-pass filter (Ll, C23, R46) which reduces the audio bandwidth specified for the operating channel of the transmitter. The low-pass filter output is mixed with the output of tone encoder lC-ZA. IC-ZA is a low-distortion Wien bridge oscillator. This composite signal is then routed to the controller circuit board for application to control R4. The signal from R4 is applied to the modulation port of the VCO on the frequency synthesizer circuit board. This audio signal is also routed to amplifier IC-ZB to increase the level required for a 600 ohm headphone monitor. IC—2C is a dc amplifier designed to amplify the AGC voltage. The output of 1C-2C drives the audio compression meter. RF POWER AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT BOARD 300—170A2E/170A4E/170A1 E. The RF output from the RF pre-driver circuit board is connected to the input of the power amplifier circuit board at a 50 ohm impedance. Transformation of the 50 ohm input to the base impedance of 01 is accomplished by C1. C2, L1, L2, and L3. L4 and L5 provide a path for 01 base current and the LS — R1 parallel circuit reduces low frequen- cy gain and instability. The RF output power of Q] is approximately 10 watts and is routed to the base of 02 by the L-C impedance matching network shown on the schematic. L13 and R2 reduce low—frequency gain and instability. RF power at the collector of 02 is matched to 50 ohms‘by the L—C network shown. The collector supply to 01 and 02 is decoupled by L8 and CS ~ C10. OUTPUT LOW—PASS FILTER CIRCUIT BOARD 800-250A4/306A2. RF output from the RF power amplifier circuit board is routed through a four—section low—pass filter and direction- al-coupler before reaching the output connector. The directional—coupler is of stripline construction. The forward power sample of this coupler is routed to the RF output meter and the reflected power sample is routed to compara- tor IC—lA on the meter circuit board. IC—lA will flash the ANTENNA LED to indicate a high VSWR condition. R5 and R6 calibrate the forward and reflected power samples.

The 800—287A4ETcircuit board is used in the 450 MHz band units. The 800—305AlET circuit board is used in the 150 MHz band units, The 800—305A2E’I'circuit board is used in the 215 MHz band units. The frequen- cy synthesizer consists of Phase-Locked Loop lCS, voltage—controlled-oscillator 02, pro-sealer IC4, reference os- cillator Y], and loop filter lC2A. The transmitter frequency is synthesized using a local oscillator. lCS is a pro— grammable device with a reference frequency generated by a crystal oscillator, The loop filter is an active type. The pre—scaler is used to pre-soale the VCO frequency to make it compatible to the PLL, The PLL performs three major functions: 1. Compares the phase of the pre—scaled VCO frequency with the frequency of resolution and produces outputs that are used by the loop filter to generate a dc voltage. This dc control voltage is used to control the VCO frequency. 2. Controls the pre—scaler by selecting the divisor. 3. Generates the frequency of resolution internally using the crystal oscillator. The PLL has 16 programming pins that are used by controller circuit board 800—339A1 to select a VCO frequency and produce a lock. An extremely stable crystal oscillator and noiseless loop filter make the synthesizer ultra stable. The output of phase-locked VCO 02 is buffered by 1C}. The output of IC3 is low—pass filtered and connected to 11 (LO. out). CONTROLLER CIRCUIT BOARD fiOO—339A1 . The controller board consists of up/down counter U107 and EPROMs 0109 and U110. Pulses from the channel se- lector switches on LCD display circuit board 800-340)“ are routed through a debouncing circuit constructed from timer U106. The output from U106 is applied to a logic circuit consisting of NOR gates U101 and U102. The logic circuit directs U107 to count up or down as determined by the up/down switches on the LCD display circuit board. The output of U107 functions as an address generator for U109 and U110. Both U109 and U110 respond to the ad- dress by selecting an 8 hit output with the information required to drive the PLL circuit on the frequency synthesizer circuit board. Header 1104 configures EPROMs U109/U110 for read or write operation. When P104A is installed in position 1A2 and 5101 is depressed, data on the I/O bus will be stored in U109/U110 and LED DSIDI will illuminate. When P1043 is installed in position 3-4.
