Introduction to
This Section
This section covers performance checks used to verify that the radio meets published
specifications. The recommended test equipment listed in the previous section approaches
the accuracy of the manufacturing equipment, with a few exceptions. Accuracy of the
equipment must be maintained in compliance with the manufacturer’s recommended
calibration schedule. Checks should be performed if radio performance degradation is
suspected.
Setup Supply voltage can be connected from the battery eliminator. The equipment required for
alignment procedures is connected as shown in the “Radio Alignment Test Setup” diagram
(Figure 4).
