5. Perform a response calibration by pressing .
NOTE A full 2-port calibration will increase the accuracy of isolation measurements. Refer to
Chapter 5 , “Optimizing Measurement Results.”
6. Make the connections as shown in Figure 2-34.
CAUTION To get an accurate assessment of the LO-IF isolation, the proper LO power level must be
input to the LO port.
