6-20 Radio Alignment Procedures: Front End Filter Alignment
6.6 Front End Filter Alignment
The alignment procedure adjusts the front end receiver bandpass filters for the best receiver
sensitivity and selectivity. This procedure should be performed for all test frequencies to allow for
proper software interpolation of frequencies between the test frequencies in the band
(see Figure 6-25 and Figure 6-26).
NOTE: Rx Front End Filter Alignment is required after replacing (or servicing) the transceiver board.
