            Abstract : 
A pair of GaAs ICs which form a complete front end for a VHF-UHF receiver will be described. The chip set includes an AGC amplifier, two mixers, a VCO, a divide-by-two, a pair of amplifiers and an active combiner. Image rejection is 40dB at 800MHz. Total chip area is 2.15mm2.
