4-2.1 Basic FM Receiver Testing Setup
Refer to figure 4-2. Connect the analyzer's RF
I/O port to the radio antenna connector. Connect
the radio audio output to VERT/SINAD port of
the analyzer.
CAUTION
With some radios, grounding the speaker
leads will damage the audio circuitry. Use
isolation techniques on these radios.
1. With the cursor located within the RF
Control zone (refer to paragraph 3-2), press
the
GEN softkey to place the analyzer into
its Generator mode of operation.
