5.0 Troubleshooting Flow Chart for DC Supply (1 of 2)
Since the failure of a critical voltage supply might cause the radio to automatically power down,
supply voltages should first be probed with a multimeter. If all the board voltages are absent, then
the voltage test point should be retested using a rising-edge-triggered oscilloscope. If the voltage is
still absent, then another voltage should be tested using the oscilloscope. If that voltage is present,
then the original voltage supply in question is defective and requires investigation of associated
circuitry.
