Conducting the RF Coverage Field Test
The objective of the field test is to “simulate” the
transmission quality and coverage that the
repeater may have based upon a chosen location.
This type of testing and planning becomes very
useful as it can save you extra work and money as
a poor location and/or adverse environmental
conditions can affect the repeater’s performance.
To do so, one person should remain in the
tentative repeater location and the second person
should start walking around the area intended to
be covered, while transmitting with the radio.
If the quality communication between the two way
radios is good, this will mean that the repeater
transmissions should be OK.
The test can be conducted by more than two
people, as long as the first one remains fixed on
the repeater location under evaluation.
Note:
If you’re planning to have an external
antenna installation, you should try to mimic,
as much as possible, the antenna
positioning to replicate the antenna’s height.
