7.3.2 Gain Adjustment
The adjustment of the receiver gain is controlled by b3 – b0 of the Rx Mode Register ($13), see section
6.4.1. The switching of gain during reception of data should be avoided as phase discontinuities will occur
at transitions from –18dB to –24dB and –24dB to –18dB. The architecture of the gain control is shown in
Figure 20.

Oscillator Components for Alternative Intermediate Frequencies.
Table 11 shows the tank circuit values for operating the internal IF local oscillator and negative resistance
amplifier at 180MHz (45MHz receive IF). With reference to Figure 13, typical values for other common
intermediate frequencies are shown below.
