ADJUSTMENTS

5-27. THIRD CONVERTER ADJUSTMENTS(Cont'd)

Adjust function generator amplitude and frequency for at least 10 MHz deviation (k5 MHz) and an easy- to-view display on the 8569B spectrum analyzer. Refer to Figure 5-15. Increasing the frequency of the function generator will increase the swept frequency range of the sweep oscillator.

Adjust second IF bandpass filter adjustments A10C9 through A10C12 for the flattest bandpass response possible at the greatest amplitude possible centered at 21.4 MHz and at least 6 MHz (6 divisions) wide at 1 dB down from the highest point on the response curve. Do not sacrifice large amounts of amplitude for flatness. Some early instruments may display ripple on the response. This ripple should be I1 dB peak-to- peak. Peak of adjusted response should be at -10 dBm +2 dB.

NOTE

The output level of the third converter is actually 0 dBm. Due to the mismatch error ( ~ 9 . 5dB) encountered in this measurement, the level measured will be approximately - 10 dBm.

Refer to Figure 5-15 for example of properly adjusted bandpass response and requirements for response.
