(29) Connect equipment as shown in figure 12.
(30) Set variable attenuator 10 dB step control to 0 dB.
(31) Adjust signal generator frequency controls to 301.4 MHz and RF output level
to -13 dBm.
(32) Set TEST/NORM switch (located on A12 board) to TEST position.
(33) Adjust signal generator frequency controls for a maximum signal amplitude
display on crt. (Reduce signal generator RF output, if necessary.)
(34) Adjust signal generator RF output controls for a multimeter indication of 700 mV.
(35) Set REFERENCE LEVEL switch to -80 dBm.
(36) Set variable attenuator 10 dB step control to 30 dB and adjust A14R3 (fig. 14)
for a multimeter indication of 700 mV (R).
(37) Repeat (34) through (36) above until multimeter indication is between 698 and
702 mV.
(38) Set REFERENCE LEVEL switch to -50 dBm.
(39) Set variable attenuator 10 dB step control to 0 dB.
(40) Set REFERENCE LEVEL switch and variable attenuator 10 dB step control to
settings as listed in table 11. If any deviation from reference is not within specified limits,
readjust A14R3 (fig. 14) for best (in limits) compromise (R).
