Auto freq. track for UO-14. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Auto UO-14 RX frequency tracking for TS-790/FT-736 ------------------------------------------------------ The doppler shift range in overhead pass reaches to 20kHz. It is essential to tune-in RX frequency for good through put. I assembled auto freq. tracking for UO-14 FSK signal reception and achieved good result.

Whitout RX signal, set the VR to Q1 pin 1 level turn HIGH->LOW. In my case, I assembled the circuit on a small universal PCB and enclosed into TINY-2 with NB96 board. In the case of FT-736, DL signal polarity is different from TS-790 so change as follow ------ 3 Q2 1------|>------> DL signal to mic terminal 2 | Diode (1S1588 etc) -----
