Instructions
The Tl1 button resets the unit. Press it after frequency set. The unit provides a reset on power-up, so you don't need to use the button.
The D1 LED indicates the tuning cycle is done (after one second from reset). It's not needed to use it and the R6 resistor.
The R8 resistor provides a minimal voltage of about 2 V on the PLL output. Use this resistor if the transmitter's oscillator doesn't work if the tunning voltage is below this value (mainly after power-up). Place the resistor over the R3.
Notes:
- Output of the PLL should not be directly loaded with big capacities (over about 0,3 uF). The PLL loop may be unstable. This applies to some unknown transmitters.
PR = wire-bridge
