Note
It is important to understand that each shaped frequency response probe model is designed
to conform to a particular standard.
The readout on the 8718B is shown in terms of Percent of Standard. The full scale of Narda’s shaped probes is typically either 300% or 600% of a standard. This permits measurements of exposure environments where the weighted field strengths range from as high as three to six times the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) level to environments where the levels are less than one percent of the MPE.
