Pass/Fail Limit 13, RX Squelch Blocking
Pass/Fail Limit 13, RX Squelch Blocking
This is used with Pass/Fail Limit 16, RX Tight Squelch Sensitivity to set the pass/
fail limits for testing a receiver’s squelch blocking. The limits you set determine
how much the receiver’s output is allowed to drop as a continuous signal level is
applied and the modulation frequency is varied from 300 Hz to 3 kHz.
Pass/Fail limits are determined from an applicable industry standard, such as:
Industry standard: EIA/TIA-603, Section 2.1.14, Squelch Blocking
For Example:
If your industry standard states that the receiver’s output should not drop more
than 10 dB and you want to test the radio’s upper limit only, enter
0 in the lower-
limit column and
10 in the upper-limit column. Limits are entered in dB.
It’s Used in the Following Test:
