  • Page 14: Maintenance

    ANNUAL CALIBRATION To ensure reliable and repeatable long-term performance, annual re-calibration of your antennas, preamplifiers and current probes by A.H. Systems experienced technicians is recommended. Our staff can calibrate almost any type or brand of antenna. It is always up to the user to determine the appropriate interval for calibration certification based on the requirements of the end users specific test/application.
