RF Analyzer FM Accuracy
Performance Test 20
The purpose of this test is to verify that the Test Set meets the
specification limits in PTR (Performance Test Record)
Table 9-20, “RF
Analyzer FM Accuracy Test 20 Record,” on page 271 . The AM/FM test
source provides the RF signal with FM. The signal is measured both by
the Test Set’s internal RF analyzer and the measuring receiver. The FM
signal comes from the external audio source in the audio analyzer. The
audio level is varied until the modulation is at the desired FM deviation
as measured by the measuring receiver.
NOTE
Use the AM/FM test source output labeled FM÷32 for 12.5 MHz and the
output labeled FM for 400 MHz. You can measure the frequency with
the measuring receiver and adjust it with the carrier frequency tune
knob, but the exact frequency is not critical.
