This procedure verifies flatness and measurement accuracy by checking signal
levels at specified frequencies.
NOTE. Frequencies and levels checked are not specified in this procedure. If the
measurement accuracy of certain frequencies and levels is important to your
application, we recommend that your test procedure include those frequencies
and levels.
