COMMAND
SET

HAVE QUICK).
a. Description. The UHF command set is a
line-of-sight
radio
transceiver
that
provides
transmission and reception of AM signals in the ultra
high frequency range of 225.000 to 399.975 MHz for a
distance range of approximately 50 miles. Channel
selection is spaced at 0.025 MHz. A separate receiver
is incorporated to provide monitoring capability for the
UHF guard frequency (243.0 MHz). UHF audio output
is applied to the audio panel where it is routed to the
headsets.
NOTE
The PRESET channel selector and manual
frequency selectors are inoperative when
the mode selector is set to GUARD
position. The receiver-transmitter will be
set to the emergency frequency only.
Existing
capabilities
of
the
HAVE
QUICK
modified radio are preserved to the maximum extent
possible when it is operated in the normal (non-
hopping) mode. No new procedures are required for
normal radio operation.
To operate in the AM mode, the radio must first
be initialized. This initialization requires the setting of
two control entries into the radio, Word of Day (WOD)
and Time of Day (TOD). The WOD defines the choice
of frequency hopping pattern for the day. The WOD
choice is a managerial function and the same WOD
may be used for one or more days. The TOD must be
loaded into the clock contained within the radio.
The transmitter and receiver sections of the UHF
unit operate independently, but share the same power
supply and frequency control circuit. Separate cables
route transmit and receive signals to their respective
receiver/transmitter.
The UHF command set is protected by a
5-ampere UHF circuit breaker in the overhead circuit
breaker panel. Refer to Figure 2-16, Sheets 1 and 2.
The associated blade type antenna is shown in Figure
2-1.
