SERVICE MANUAL MODEL ‘‘ROYAL 1000’ ALL TRANSISTOR TRANSOCEANIC PORTABLE RECEIVER CHASSIS 9(T4072 To the Sewiceman SENERAL ‘The tansistor portable chassis heterodyne receiver using tn individual mizsr and osc to produce the 455 Ke intermediate frequency. The intermedi ste feequency amplifiers are conventional fase neutralization in the LF. amplifier stages as in circuits tating a triode tabe, The 103-22 diode is used as detector former T4. This is thea fll fand 2 driver stage for the class B push pall outpet, The 121-47 oupuc uansistoce are a matched peic and will be ‘coded with paine does, red, white, yellow and green. Should fone ensistor fail it most be replaced with another 121-47 transistor with corresponding color. Do aot use 121-47 « sistors ia pairs unless their color codes are idesti ‘The icon core slugs of the RF, aixer and oscillator coils have hexholes hough their centers. This will enable the technician to une the top slug thea drop alignment wreach down through the slug to adjust the slug in the ZANL. 134 vole of Standard Flashlight Batceses total 12 volts D.C.

When making measurements across an electrolytic capacitor, be certain the ohm meter leads are coectly polarized; also be certain the battery voleage of che meter does not exceed the working voltage of the capacitor. Otherwise damage to the capacitor may result, VOLTAGE READINGS Ik ie suggested that «° VIVM with an excellent low range le be need to measure all circuit voltages, All voltages japrams have been me voltage of 12,0 volts, Under these 20 sigaal conditions, 1 check can be made of the batteries. With carbon batteries, the coral voltage should be 12.0 voles ‘COMPONENT REPLACEMENT ‘When soldering components at the base of the wansistor soc- ket, it ia suggested that the transistor be removed to avoid any possibility of excessive heat being uansferred dhrough the socket to the transistor. When soldering the low voltage clecuolytics and germanium diodes, itis suggested chat the wze be held with « pais of long nose plicrs while soldering ‘The long nose pliets will act as « heat sink, ‘TRANSISTORS ‘At the present time we do act tnow of any satisfactory com mercially © lable transistor cester.If the transistor is susyected of being defective for any other reason than a-bastier shore the only rellable chock le C0 oub- stitute a new wansistor and then check perlomance, There is 1 possibility char if transistors are replaced in the IF or RE Circuit, these circuits may need re-alignment as the result of slight differences in transistor character SIGNAL TRACING ‘commonly known a8"'Scrow in which the B+ at the plate of the tube ie fhocred to ground to check for “click” in the speaker, is definitely not recommended. This practice would be compar ble to shorting the collector of # transistor to ground which Could damage the transistor, Seandard point to point signal checking with the proper RF, IF and audio signals, should only be used.
