user interface or RSSI DC voltage test points.
2. Check the far-end transmitter for operation and proper transmit
power.
3. Check the RF path using a spectrum analyzer or RSSI voltages for
proper alignment. Have path professionally re-aligned and check
system path engineering.
4. Check the antenna feedhorn and all outdoor connections for water.
Check all connections between the BBP, the RFC, and the antenna.
5.
Check the IF and RF cables for shorts.
