Changes in RSL often have an impact on BER, and this can be confirmed by looking for synchronized
events. When BER events occur without corresponding changes in RSL, this normally indicates
interference, atmospheric changes, transmission system issues (such as problems with cables,
connectors or antennas), or possibly radio hardware problems.
It is also useful to help determine if changes in radio temperature are occurring, and if they are having
any impact on RSL or BER. If the radio is mounted in an environmentally controlled location, this has
less relevance. However, temperature monitoring can be helpful to ensure that the radio is operating
within specifications.
Use the independent V (Vertical) and H (Horizontal) selections to diagnose issues that might be
dependent upon polarization or only effecting part of the system. Comparing the two can indicate if the
issues are the same independent of polarization.
