■ Trigger Base radios use power levels approximately 6dB higher for each
of the three AGC (automatic gain control) test points, during the
Receiver test.
■ The target power levels for mid-power radios are higher than for other
models during the Tx Power Control test.
■ Mid-power radios use a lower current limit for each of the bias and
power tests.
Specifications form
You can use the Specifications for m to view the Radio Model and Band. To

Viewing calibration test results
After you have finished one or more calibration tests, you can preview the
results of those tests. This can be useful before programming the radio to
send the new calibration data to the radio.
To view calibration data, navigate to the Raw Data form and click on the
various tab pages. See “Raw data reference” on page 18 for more on the
information available.
Viewing calibration files
Before and after calibrating a radio, it is recommended that you save the
radio’s calibration database to file (see “Calibrating the radio” on page 9).
To open and view a file saved to disk
1. Select the File > Open menu command, or click the Open button
on the toolbar.
