Circuit Description - Kenwood TK-360G Service Manual

1. Frequency configuration
The receiver utilizes double conversion. The first IF is 49.95
MHz and the second IF is 450 kHz. The first local oscillator
signal is supplied form the PLL circuit.
The PLL circuit in the transmitter generates the necessary
frequencies. Fig. 1 shows the frequencies.

1) Front end (RF AMP)
The signal coming form the antenna passes through the
transmit/receive switching diode circuit, (D3,D7) passes
through a BPF, and is amplified by the RF amplifier (Q301).
The resulting signal passes through a BPF and goes to the
mixer.
2) First mixer
The signal from the front end is mixed with the first local
oscillator signal generated in the PLL circuit by Q19 to
produce a first IF frequency of 49.95 MHz.
The resulting signal passes through the XF1 MCF to cut
the adjacent spurious and provide the optimum
characteristics, such as adjacent frequency selectivity.

3) IF Amplifier circuit
The first IF signal is passed through a four-pole monolithic
crystal filter (XF1) to remove the adjacent channel signal.
The filtered first IF signal is amplified by the first IF amplifier
(Q22) and then applied to the lF system IC (IC4). The IF
system IC provides a second mixer, second local oscillator,
limiting amplifier, quadrature detector and RSSI (Received
Signal Strength Indicator). The second mixer mixes the first
IF signal with the 50.4MHz of the second local oscillator
output (TCXO X3) and produces the second IF signal of
450kHz.
The second IF signal is passed through the ceramic filter
(CF1; Wide, CF2 ; Narrow) to remove the adjacent channel
signal. The filtered second IF signal is amplified by the
limiting amplifier and demodulated by the quadrature
detector with the ceramic discriminator (CD1). The
demodulated signal is routed to the audio circuit.
4) Wide/Narrow changeover circuit
Narrow and Wide settings can be made for each channel
by switching the ceramic filters CF1 (Wide) and CF2
(Narrow).
The WIDE (high level) and NARROW (low level) data is
output from IC5 (OUTPUT EXPANDER), pin 4.
When a WIDE (high level) data is received, Q14 turn off
and Q17 turn on. When a NARROW (low level) data is
received, Q14 turn on and Q17 turn off. D14 and D13 are
switched to ceramic filters when a high/low level data is
received.
Q23 turns on/off with the Wide/Narrow data and the IC4
detector output level is changed to maintain a constant
output level during wide or narrow signals.
