Test Procedures
1
Connect the transmitter unit to the spectrum analyzer using a co-axial cable

Press TRACE, CLEAR WRITE A, and MAX HOLD A on the spectrum
analyzer. This configures the HP 8590 to capture the peak signal level
detected and continuously display it on the screen between analyzer
frequency sweeps. Allow 406 MHz transmission bursts to occur. As the
screen fills up with the spectrum trace, use PEAK SEARCH to find the carrier
peak. Record the frequency value indicated on the analyzer screen as the
406 MHz carrier frequency, which shall be 406.028 MHz ±2 kHz.
