2. Emission points.
A steady or fluctuating pinpoint of bright light in the image area
and does not go away when all light is blocked from the objective
lens of the monocular (Figure 5-3). The position of an emission
point within the image area does not move. Not all emission
points make the ATN NVM-14 rejectable. Make sure any emis-
sion point is not simply a point light source in the scene you are
viewing. Emission points are acceptable if they do not interfere
with the ability to perform the mission.

3. Black Spots.
These are cosmetic blemishes in the image intensifier or dirt or
debris between the lenses. Black spots are acceptable as long
as they do not interfere with viewing the image.
No action is
required if this condition is present unless the spots inter-
fere with the operator’s ability to perform the mission.
