This is a test only; there is no alignment.
Table 6-24. Analyzer Configuration for Noise Squelch Threshold test
6.13.1. Test
The purpose of this procedure is to verify that the squelch circuit operation performs as
expected, blocking noise but allowing stronger signals to be heard. The analyzer is
setup as specified in this section’s Analyzer Configuration table. The radio is placed into
Test Mode at the lowest RX Test Frequency. The radio audio output level is tested and
if insufficient to measure the unsquelched condition the volume is increased. Beginning
at -125 dBm, the analyzer output level is slowly increased until the radio unsquelches
OR is 6 dBm above the Max Limit, whichever comes first. The Unsquelch analyzer
output level is compared against test limits and the final results written to the log file.
