The gate bias for the A3A14 LO distribution amplifier assembly is
adjusted to the value specified on a label on the RF section. The LO
power is adjusted so that the LO SENSE voltage is equal to the value
specified on the label. The adjustments are made on the A10 tracking
generator control assembly, which is located in the card cage.
