1. General
A. This task gives procedures to do the adjustment/test of the transponder components.
• An adjustment/test is only required for the transponder that is being installed. The
opposite transponder, if it has not been removed, does not require an adjustment/
test
• There are two testing methods, the preferred method is with the use of a transponder
antenna coupler to limit emissions that may interfere with Air Traffic Control
operations and the second method which uses the IFR-6000 antennas.
