Chapter 4, Test, Parameter, and Pass/Fail Limit Descriptions

Pass/Fail Limit 12, RX Hum and Noise Unsquelched

This sets the pass/fail limits for receiver hum-and-noise testing with squelch set to

minimum.

Pass/Fail limits are determined from an applicable radio specification or industry

standard, such as:

• Radio specification: Hum and Noise

• Industry standard: EIA/TIA-603, Section 2.1.11, Hum and Noise Ratio

For Example:

If your radio standard defines hum and noise, unsquelched, as 37 dB minimum

and you want to test the radio’s lower limits only, you would enter

37 in the

lower-limit column and

0 in the upper-limit column. Limits are entered in dB.

It’s Used in the Following Test:
