MODULATION
Overview
The modulation menu contains all the editable fields for setting and activating
modulation.
Pressing the MOD key opens the modulation menu. The on screen
Enable
key will
apply the currently selected modulation type indicated in the
Type
parameter
window. The MOD key will become illuminated when modulation is activated and
the
Enable
key will change to
Disable
. The
Disable
key will stop modulation when
pressed.
IQ Carrier Feedthrough and Sideband Spurs
Additional low-level spurs will exist at 25MHz and 50MHz offsets from the carrier
when modulation is active. If these are significant in a particular application, they
can be minimised using the IQ TRIM facility, for more details see ‘IQ Trim’.
