better than 25 dB down from the fundamental. 

 

(a) 

If the above items are found to be outside of the specification, check 
the  spectral  content  of  the  input  signal.  If  this  is  a  pure  signal  then 
the unit needs to be returned to the factory for service.  

 
 
4.3.1    Measurement of Gain 
 
1.     Equipment Required (or equivalent): 
 

a) 

Osilloscope - Tektronix T921 

b) 

Sweep/Generator -  HP8601A 

c) 

Signal Generator -  Exact Model 7060 

d) 

50  ohm  Detector -   Wavetek  D151 

e) 

Attenuator,  30 dB,  200  Watts  Bird 

 
 

 

 
Figure 4-1.  Gain Measurement 
 
2. Connect the equipment as shown in Figure 4-1, then proceed as follows: 
 

a) 

Set  the  oscilloscope  to  DC,  Time/cm  to  Ext.  X,  and  gain  to 
l0mv/cm. 

b) 

Set  the  sweep  generator  to  the  video  sweep  mode  with  the  start 
frequency at 10 kHz and the sweep width to 12 MHz. 

c) 

Disconnect  the  2100L  from  the  set-up  and  connect  the 
sweep/generator RF output directly to the 30 dB attenuator.
