Step e and 1000.48 kHz to 1000.52 kHz
Step e and 1000.98 kHz to 1001.02 kHz
Step e and 1001.48 kHz
to
1001.52 kHz
e. With the FREQUENCY control pulled
out
for fine
tuning, tune the 3580A frequency for a Counter reading
between 1000.58 kHz and 1000.62 kHz.
f.
Press CLEAR WRITE, then slowly turn the
MANUAL VERNIER
to
obtain a peak reading. The peak
should be more than 70 dB below full scale (- 140 dBV).
g.
Repeat Steps e and f substituting 1001.18 kHz to
1001.22 kHz, and 1001.78 kHz
to
1001.82 kHz for the
Counter readings.

7. These tests verify
the
ability
of
the instrument
to
reject a
100
kHz signal
at
the
input and also
how
well
the
Zero Beat Response
is
suppressed. Proceed to the Mixer
Balance Adjustments (Paragraph 5-81)
of
the Adjustment
Procedures
if
the
Zero Beat Response
is
too
large. Proceed
to
Section VII for troubleshooting information
if
there is
too
much

Feedthru.
Equipment Required:
Frequency Synthesizer (-hp- Model 3320B,
50
ohm)
a. Reconnect
the
synthesizer
to
the 3580A. Do
not
terminate. Adjust
the
source for a 10 volt 100 kHz
output
(+
26.99 dBm
50
ohms setting on 3320B and untermina-
ted).
b.
Position the following front panel controls: (Only
