2.Center LO feedthroughsignal on CRT with spectrum analyzer TUNING control. Adjust FREQ CAL for a FREQUENCY GHz readout of 0.000.

FIGURE4-15. TYPICAL FREQUENCY RESPONSEFOR .O1 TO 2.4 GHz

Using 0.01 - 2.4 GHz sweep oscillator plug-in, connect equipment as shown in Figure 4-14. Connect output of power splitter, through 20-dB attenuator, to spectrum analyzer input. Turn sweep oscillator RF power ON and adjust ALC GAIN control for leveled output indication.

NOTE

Use maximum possible ALC GAIN to avoid leveling errors during swept measurements.
