Checking performance of the transmitter

NOTE

Checking the transmit frequency

The transmit frequency is checked using the same method as frequency adjustment (see

Connect a signal generator to provide two-tone audio (700 Hz and 2300 Hz) via the
test unit to:
• the audio input on the 15-way GPIO connector on the junction box or 2012 RF

• the 2011 RF Unit via the NGT test handset (see
Hold down PTT, then increase the audio output slowly until the moment when the
output power stops increasing.
This point is the ALC threshold.
Record the PEP output and increase the audio input by 10 dB.
The increase in output should be less than 0.5 dB above the ALC threshold.
If the increase in output is greater than 0.5 dB above the ALC threshold, further
analysis is required.
