Receiver Desense
A Receiver desense test can be performed by connecting an RF Signal Sampler such as the Bird Model
4275 Variable RF Signal Sampler between the receive port of the fi ltering equipment and the receiver
RF IN as shown in Figure 6-3. Ensure the transmitter is connected to the fi ltering equipment and the
transmitter is turned OFF.
Figure 6-3: Receiver Desense Testing
On the IFR 2975, recall Codan setup 1 (Rx_Ana) from your internal drive. Enter the correct RF
frequency, select the MOD TYPE to FM and set it for a 1.0 KHz tone and ensure that the deviation level
is set correctly for your receiver (wide / narrow). Enter the CTCSS tone (if used) and deviation level. In
the System Setup; Jumper Settings area of the Service section on the RSS ensure that the “Subtones
on audio path” selection is set to “Don’t pass”.
Monitor the SINAD meter while slowly reducing the RF carrier level. The RF carrier level can be
reduced on the IFR 2975 and also through the variable RF signal sampler. Note the 12 dB SINAD
point. Now, turn the transmitter to KEY TX and check the SINAD meter for any noticeable drop in
sensitivity. If the sensitivity does drop, increase the RF carrier level on the IFR 2975 until the 12 dB
SINAD point is reached. Receiver desense is the diff erence between this RF carrier level and the RF
carrier level noted when the transmitter was OFF. The receiver desense gives a relative idea of the
additional isolation required by fi ltering equipment.
Note: other transmitters located at the site can also cause desense.
