    This document provides modification hints for increasing the output power of an AE 5800 radio for use by licensed radio amateurs. It describes three versions of the radio that have different output adjusting methods. To increase the power beyond the standard limits, potentiometers and other components need to be removed or adjusted. The modifications are only allowed for amateur radio use and increased power is forbidden in the CB frequency range.

    Modification Hints AE 5800 / March 2003

    Increasing of Output Power for use by licenced radio amateurs

    Problem:
    AE 5800 has been shipped in up to now 3 slightly different versions,These versions have different
    output adjusting methods to keep the EN 300 433 limits in SSB (4 Watts PEP) , FM (4 Watts)
    and AM (1 Watt).

    Version 1 (see picture) has 2 potentiometers on the soldering side.

    Position for trimmer or


    SSB-Power 3.9 pF fixed value
    (versions 2, 3 only)

    FM/AM-
    Power

    The left potentiometer is for SSB only, the


    right for FM (AM is automatically set to 25 %
    of FM power) Both potentiometers are for
    output adjusting in the EN 300 433 version.
    The maximum tunable power value is around
    10 watts.
    Version 2 has only one potentiometer (for
    FM), but a small additional red coloured
    trimmer capacitor for SSB in the position,
    which is free in version 1 (see above photo).
    Resistor for SSB Version 3 has one potentiometer for FM, a
    4 watt setting fixed resistor (1 kOhm, at the position
    (only versions 2,3) where the SSB potentiometer was in version
    1, see left photo), the small red trimmer or a
    fixed capacitor value 3.9 pF.
    Output increasing:
    If the tuning range of version 1 does not be enough, delete both potentiometers (version 1) or the FM
    potentiometer and the red trimmer capacitor (version2)
    In version 3 please delete the 1 kOhms resistor, the FM potentiometer and the red trimmer or the fixed
    3.9 pF capacitor.

    Final adjustment of SSB-ALC:


    It may be necessary to re-adjust RV 9 on the component side in SSB to obtain 25 Watts PEP with
    modulation.

    Note:
    This modifications are only allowed when converting the radio to amateur frequencies 28-29.7 MHz
    (see AE 485 S) and for use by licenced amateur radio operators. Increased power is forbidden in CB
    frequency range!
