o We recommend that you perform the antenna selection test if anything is
even slightly unclear
Options for processing the results:
• “Save” saves the information in the table to the Carat system.
• “Columns” select the visible columns; the table might be easier to read if you hide
unnecessary columns
• “Export” exports a text file to the Carat file system – you can enter the location in the
dialog that appears after you click “Export” – which is a handy feature for comparison
of results obtained at different times
