TG UNLVL
This message can indicate the following: that the source power is set higher or lower than the cable TV analyzer can provide, that the frequency span extends beyond the speciEed frequency range of the tracking generator, or that the calibration data for the tracking generator is incorrect. See
Too many signal with valid N dB points
Indicates the N dB PTS function has located two or more signals that have amplitudes within the specified dB from the signal peak. If this happens, you should decrease the span of the cable TV analyzer so that only the signal that you want to measure is displayed. (U)
