Technician License Course Chapter 3 Types of Radios and Radio Circuits Module 7

The Basic Radio Station

Basic Station Organization Station Equipment –Receiver –Transmitter –Antenna –Power Supply Accessory Station Equipment Repeaters

Transmit/Receive (TR) Switch If the station antenna is shared between the transmitter and receiver, the TR switch allows the antenna to be switched to the transmitter when sending and to the receiver when receiving. –In a transceiver, this TR switch is inside the unit and requires no attention by the operator.

What Happens During Radio Communication? Transmitting (sending a signal): –Information (voice, data, video, commands, etc.) is converted to electronic form. –The information in electronic form is attached or embedded on a radio wave (a carrier). –The radio wave is sent out from the station antenna into space.

What Happens During Radio Communication? Receiving end: –The radio wave (carrier) with the information is intercepted by the receiving station antenna. –The receiver extracts the information from the carrier wave. –The information is then presented to the user in a format that can be understood (sound, picture, words on a computer screen, response to a command).

What Happens During Radio Communication? This sounds pretty simple, but it in reality is pretty complex. This complexity is one thing that makes ham radio fun…learning all about how radios work. Don’t be intimidated. You will be required to only know the basics, but you can learn as much about the “art and science” of radio as you want.
