Using PureSignal Adaptive Predistortion

Enable PureSignal using the 

PS-A

 button. Select 

Linearity

 from the menu to configure.

Using a 

DUMMY LOAD

 and your 

Panadapter set for

 

DUP

, you can activate the 

TWO TONE button

 in the 

PureSignal Control Window.  You should immediately see your transmitted signal displayed with the primary and
odd harmonic peaks. PureSignal will adjust your ATT on Tx for an optimal value and then in just a few seconds 
it will lower your 3

rd

 ,5

th

 ,7

th

  Intermodulation Distortion Product peaks to a surprisingly lower level. PureSignal 

can optimally adjust unwanted IMD by as much as -45dbc or more depending on your particular configuration. 
PureSignal will continue to optimize your signal as you speak in a normal voice.
