GENERAL. (CONT)

Each test is complete and maybe performed individually. Therefore, you may choose the appropriate

test to verify gross equipment failure or performance degradation of specific stages. However, this

maintenance approach is not recommended. It is best to perform all the tests in sequence. This

systematic maintenance approach willI ensure that alI faults are found and corrected.

Faults in the R-442/VRC are evidenced by failure of the radio to meet the performance standards found

within the test procedures in bold type. When an R-442/VRC fails to meet a performance standard,

discontinue the test and turn to the troubleshooting chart referred to in the procedure.

VOLUME CONTROL TEST.

5-2.

PURPOSE. This test checks the VOLUME control of the R-442/VRC for proper operation. When a

1-kHz tone is injected into the R-442/VRC ANTENNA port, the speaker should output a clear tone with

no scratchy sound or sudden drop in volume. The absence of a tone means that the signal is not

passing completely through the R-442/VRC circuitry and could even indicate total equipment failure;

therefore, perform this test before the others in this section.
