FCC ID: ALH30643110 PAGE NO. 15 of 28. NAME OF TEST: Field Strength of Spurious Radiation SPECIFICATION: 47 CFR 2.1053(a) GUIDE: ANSI/TIA/EIA-603-1992/2001, Paragraph 1.2.12 and Table 16, 47 CFR 22.917 MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE 1.2.12.1 Definition: Radiated spurious emissions are emissions from the equipment when transmitting into a non-radiating load on a frequency or frequencies which are outside an occupied band sufficient to ensure transmission of information of required quality for the class of communications desired. 1.2.12.2 Method of Measurement A) Connect the equipment as illustrated B) Adjust the spectrum analyzer for the following settings: 1) Resolution Bandwidth 100 kHz (<1 GHZ), 1 MHZ (> 1GHz). 2) Video Bandwidth ≥ 3 times Resolution Bandwidth, or 30 kHz (22.917) 3) Sweep Speed ≤2000 Hz/second 4) Detector Mode = Mean or Average Power C) Place the transmitter to be tested on the turntable in the standard test site. The transmitter is transmitting into a non-radiating load which is placed on the turntable. The RF cable to this load should be of minimum length. MFA p0270005, d0270004

FCC ID: ALH30643110 PAGE NO. 16 of 28. NAME OF TEST: Field Strength of Spurious Radiation (Cont.) D) For each spurious measurement the test antenna should be adjusted to the correct length for the frequency involved. This length may be determined from a calibration ruler supplied with the equipment. Measurements shall be made from the lowest radio frequency generated in the equipment to the tenth harmonic of the carrier, except for the region close to the carrier equal to ± the test bandwidth (see section 1.3.4.4). E) For each spurious frequency, raise and lower the test antenna from 1 m to 4 m to obtain a maximum reading on the spectrum analyzer with the test antenna at horizontal polarity. Repeat this procedure to obtain the highest possible reading. Record this maximum reading. F) Repeat step E) for each spurious frequency with the test antenna polarized vertically. G) Reconnect the equipment as illustrated. H) Keep the spectrum analyzer adjusted as in step B). I) Remove the transmitter and replace it with a substitution antenna (the antenna should be half-wavelength for each frequency involved). The center of the substitution antenna should be approximately at the same location as the center of the transmitter. At lower frequencies, where the substitution antenna is very long, this will be impossible to achieve when the antenna is polarized vertically. In such case the lower end of the antenna should be 0.3 m above the ground. MFA p0270005, d0270004

FCC ID: ALH30643110 PAGE NO. 17 of 28. NAME OF TEST: Field Strength of Spurious Radiation (Cont.) J) Feed the substitution antenna at the transmitter end with a signal generator connected to the antenna by means of a non- radiating cable. With the antennas at both ends horizontally polarized and with the signal generator tuned to a particular spurious frequency, raise and lower the test antenna to obtain a maximum reading at the spectrum analyzer. Adjust the level of the signal generator output until the previously recorded maximum reading for this set of conditions is obtained. This should be done carefully repeating the adjustment of the test antenna and generator output. K) Repeat step J) with both antennas vertically polarized for each spurious frequency. L) Calculate power in dBm into a reference ideal half-wave dipole antenna by reducing the readings obtained in steps J) and K) by the power loss in the cable between the generator and the antenna and further corrected for the gain of the substitution antenna used relative to an ideal half-wave dipole antenna. M) The levels recorded in step L) are absolute levels of radiated spurious emissions in dBm. The radiated spurious emissions in dB can be calculated by the following: Radiated spurious emissions dB = 10log10(TX power in watts/0.001) – the levels in step l) NOTE: It is permissible that other antennas provided can be referenced to a dipole.

NAME OF TEST: Transient Frequency Behavior SPECIFICATION: 47 CFR 90.214 GUIDE: ANSI/TIA/EIA-603-1992, Paragraph 2.2.19 TEST EQUIPMENT: As per attached page MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE 1. The EUT was setup as shown on the attached page, following TIA/EIA-603 steps a, b, and c as a guide. 2. The transmitter was turned on. 3. Sufficient attenuation was provided so that the transmitter carrier level measured at the output of the combiner was 40 dB below the maximum input level of the test receiver. This level was recorded as step f. 4. The transmitter was turned off. 5. An RF signal generator (1) modulated with a 1 kHz tone at either 25, 12.5, or 6.25 kHz deviation, and set to the same frequency as the assigned transmitter frequency, (2) was adjusted to a level -20 dB below the level recorded for step f, as measured at the output of the combiner. This level was then fixed for the remainder of the test and is recorded at step h. 6. The oscilloscope was setup using TIA/EIA-603 steps j and k as a guide, and to either 10 ms/div (UHF) or 5 ms/div (VHF). 7. The 30 dB attenuator was removed, the transmitter was turned on, and the level of the carrier at the output of the combiner was recorded as step l. 8. The carrier on-time as referenced in TIA/EIA-603 steps m, n, and o was captured and plotted. The carrier off-time as referenced in TIA/EIA-603 steps p, q, r, and s was captured and plotted.
