IDENTIFICATION AND DESCRIPTION
This bulletin provides instructions for the
calibration of High Power Tunable Band Pass Filter, Rodale Electronics, Inc., Model
13589299. The manufacturer's manual was used as the prime data source in compiling
these instructions. The equipment being calibrated will be referred to as the TI (test
instrument) throughout this bulletin.
a. Model Variations.
b. Time and Technique. The time required for this calibration is approximately 2
hours, using dc and low and microwave frequency techniques.
prescribed by TB 750-25.
b. Adjustments to be reported are designated (R) at the end of the sentence in which
they appear. When adjustments are in tables, the (R) follows the designated adjustment.
Report only those adjustments made and designated with (R).
pertain to this calibration are in table 1.

EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS
calibration procedure. This equipment is issued with Secondary Transfer Calibration
Standards Set 4931-00-621-7877. 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
between the standard and TI. Where the four-to-one ratio cannot be met, the actual
accuracy of the equipment selected is shown in parenthesis.
