EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS
4. Equipment Required. Table 2 identifies the specific equipment to be used in this
calibration procedure. This equipment is issued with Secondary Transfer Calibration
Standards Set AN/GSM-287 or AN/GSM-705. Alternate items may be used by the
calibrating activity. The items selected must be verified to perform satisfactorily prior to
use and must bear evidence of current calibration. The equipment must meet or exceed the
minimum use specifications listed in table 2. The accuracies listed in table 2 provide a four-
to-one ratio between the standard and TI.
5. Accessories Required. The accessories required for this calibration are common
usage accessories, issued as indicated in paragraph 4 above, and are not listed in this
calibration procedure. The following peculiar accessory is also required for this calibration:
Mixer, RHG Model DM 1-18A (P/N 21-159-2).
