or in words, the RMS of the first four hamonics to the RMS of the fundamental frequency.
Both SINAD and THD measurements occur for AM or FM depending on which demodulation type is
selected for Zero-Span.
A configurable low pass filter is available on the control panel. The low pass filter is applied to the audio
signal before modulation analysis is performed.
Using the Measuring Receiver Utility 5.7
The BB60 software provides the functionality of a measuring receiver to make tuned RF level
measurements(TRFL). TRFL measurements are useful for characterizing attenuators, signal generators,
or any device on which you want to measure the accuracy of incremental steps in the output power.
TRFL measurements are capable of making more accurate power level readings and carrier frequency
readings than in standard swept analysis mode and is capable of measuring power to much lower levels
than in swept mode.
The measuring receiver utility can be accessed through File Menu
