Instruction manual

be used with a Z Technology BC-BCB block converter and appropriate antenna for AM
Broadcast measurements.
A sample step-by-step measurement checklist is attached as Appendix A, along with
several useful charts as subsequent appendices.
Conclusions and Recommendations:
Both AM Broadcast monitoring point and signal coverage measurements are fast and
accurate with modern, programmable equipment. Procedures are easily understood and
completely repeatable. By selection of an appropriate antenna, the same field strength
measurement instrument or system can be optimized for both monitoring point and signal
coverage applications.
Signal coverage measurements over a wide area are now practical with systems utilizing
Z Technology’s operating software. Modern measurement systems and fully developed
software applications gather and map massive amounts of RF signal strength data to
provide the accurate coverage information needed by the AM Broadcaster’s technical and
business operations.
The gathering of this critical signal coverage information is now practical and economical
with modern, programmable measurement instrumentation.
