Having bought a pre-owned Sony FM stereo tuner through eBay, it came without any manuals. It soon became clear that to get the best from this excellent tuner I needed a decent manual because much of the operation was not intuitive to a newboy to hi fi like me. I managed to download the official Sony multi-lingual manual from Owner-Manuals.com with no problem at all - a really quick and easy service. I'm very glad I did because I found out all the operations of the tuner and was then able to not only set it up quickly but also to get much more from it that poke-and-hope trialling would ever achieve. In my book $4.99 very well spent.

RX, TX Bandpass Filters The RX and TX bandpass filters provide two functions. The first is to effectively pass the correct frequencies to the RX and TX sections of the RF module. It is important especially for the RX section that these filters have a low insertion loss in order to ensure a low front end noise figure. These filters are also designed to provide >25dB rejection for the opposite band. This means that the transmit carrier will be attenuated by at least 25dB before entering the receive section of the phone. A plot of the low band filter is shown below.

This filter is used for the RX filter in the handset or the TX filter in the base. The high band filter characteristic is shown below. This filter is used for the handset TX filter and base RX filter.
