a. See the IF Prefilter Bandwidth table in the specifications for “Gain Compression” on page 43 . When
the tone separation condition is met, the effect on TOI of the setting of IF Gain is negligible.
b. Preamp Level = Input Level
− Input Attenuation.
c. TOI = third order intercept. The TOI is given by the preamplifier input tone level (in dBm) minus (dis-
tortion/2) where distortion is the relative level of the distortion tones in dBc.
