the difference between the frequency entered
via the keyboard and the actual RF input
frequency).

2 Peak residuals must be accounted for in peak readings.

4 For optimum flatness, cables should be terminated with their

characteristic impedance.

5 For peak measurements only, AM accuracy may be affected by

distortion generated by the modulation analyzer. In the worst
case this can decrease accuracy by 0.1% of reading for each 0.1%
