4.0         SYSTEM TEST CONFIGURATION

The EUT was configured for testing by connecting a monopole test antenna to a signal generator. The
signal generator provided an indirect coupling of the transceivers input signal. One lower, middle and
upper frequency within the band listed below were entered on the signal generator with the RF amplitude
output set at –60dBm. The audio input port of EUT was connected to a microphone. An Alinco AC
adaptor was connected to the DC power jack. The EUT was set in the AC charging unit during the test.
The auxiliary service port was connected via a serial cable to the laptop computer’s auxiliary serial port.

4.1         JUSTIFICATION

The EUT was tested as a scanning receiver per FCC rules and regulations. The FCC does not regulate
the transmitter section of the Transceiver, since it is an Amateur transceiver and its operating frequency
falls under the amateur band.




Alinco, Inc.                                                                                           Page 6

4.2         EXERCISING THE EUT

During testing the EUT and the generator were tuned to each of the frequencies listed below and the
output level of the signal generator was set to allow for maximum signal strength reception on the EUT
(from -60dBm to -70dBm depending on the tuned frequency under test). The frequency was entered by
the keypad on the scanning receiver. When the scanning receiver was locked on to a signal radiating
from the generator and its test antenna a busy sign was displayed on the scanning receiver's LCD
display. The EUT was configured for testing to represent a worst case scenario. During testing the data
was transferred between the EUT, receiver and the computer in order to determine worst case emissions.
The channels representing each of the five bands that were scanned are as follows (MHz): 76, 125, 174,
347, 520, 672, 824, 850, 859.5, 869, 895, 947.5, and 1000.

   6.0         CONDUCTED EMISSION DATA

   The initial step in collecting conducted data is a spectrum analyzer peak scan of the measurement range.
   If the conducted emissions exceed the average limit with the instrument set to the quasi-peak mode, then
   measurements are made in the average mode.

   The conducted test was performed with the EUT exercise program loaded, and the emissions were
   scanned between 450 kHz to 30 MHz on the NEUTRAL SIDE and HOT SIDE, herein referred to as L1
   and L2, respectively. All five frequency bands were investigated and tested for conducted emissions.
   The EUT was exercised during testing in the 3 aforementioned modes. It was determined that the
   conducted emission profile within the frequency bands were the same, therefore only one conducted
   emission data is presented for each frequency band.

8.1         Field Strength Calculation


The field strength is calculated by adding the Antenna Factor and Cable Factor, and subtracting the
Amplifier Gain (if any) from the measured reading. The basic equation with a sample calculation is as
follows:



                                    FI(dBuV/m) = SAR(dBuV) + SCF(dB/m)
                                            FI = Field Intensity
                                       SAR = Spectrum Analyzer Reading
                                         SCF = Site Correction Factor


The Site Correction Factor (SCF) used in the above equation is determined empirically, and is expressed
in the following equation:

                                 SCF(dB/m) = - PG(dB) + AF(dB/m) + CL(dB)

                                          SCF = Site Correction Factor
                                            PG = Pre-amplifier Gain
                                             AF = Antenna Factor
                                               CL = Cable Loss

The field intensity in microvolts per meter can then be determined according to the following equation:

                                                  FI(uV/m) = 10FI(dBuV/m)/20


For example, assume a signal at a frequency of 125 MHz has a received level measured as 49.3 dBuV.
The total Site Correction Factor (antenna factor plus cable loss minus preamplifier gain) for 125 MHz is
-11.5 dB/m. The actual radiated field strength is calculated as follows:

                                      49.3 dBuV - 11.5 dB = 37.8 dBuV/m

                                         1037.8/20 = 101.89 = 77.6 uV/m

                          APPENDIX C: Conducted and Radiated Test Methodology

                                CONDUCTED EMISSIONS MEASUREMENTS
 The power line conducted emission measurements were performed in a Series 81 type shielded enclosure
 manufactured by Rayproof. The EUT was assembled on a wooden table 80 centimeters high. Power was fed to the
 EUT through a 50 ohm / 50 microhenry Line Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN). The EUT LISN was fed
 power through an A.C. filter box on the outside of the shielded enclosure. The filter box and EUT LISN housing are
 bonded to the ground plane of the shielded enclosure. A second LISN, the peripheral LISN, provides isolation for the
 EUT test peripherals. This peripheral LISN was also fed A.C. power. A metal power outlet box, which is bonded to
 the ground plane and electrically connected to the peripheral LISN, powers the EUT host peripherals.

 The spectrum analyzer was connected to the A.C. line through an isolation transformer. The 50-ohm output of the
 EUT LISN was connected to the spectrum analyzer input through a Solar 400 kHz high-pass filter. The filter is used
 to prevent overload of the spectrum analyzer from noise below 400 kHz. Conducted emission levels were measured
 on each current-carrying line with the spectrum analyzer operating in the CISPR quasi-peak mode (or peak mode if
 applicable). The analyzer's 6 dB bandwidth was set to 9 kHz. No video filter less than 10 times the resolution
 bandwidth was used. Average measurements are performed in linear mode using a 10 kHz resolution bandwidth, a 1
 Hz video bandwidth, and by increasing the sweep time in order to obtain a calibrated measurement. The emission
 spectrum was scanned from (150/450) kHz to 30 MHz. The highest emission amplitudes relative to the appropriate
 limit were measured and have been recorded in this report.

                                 RADIATED EMISSIONS MEASUREMENTS
 Before final measurements of radiated emissions were made on the open-field three/ten meter range, the EUT was
 scanned indoors at one meter and three meter distances, in order to determine its emissions spectrum signature. The
 physical arrangement of the test system and associated cabling was varied in order to determine the effect on the
 EUT's emissions in amplitude, direction and frequency. This process was repeated during final radiated emissions
 measurements on the open-field range, at each frequency, in order to insure that maximum emission amplitudes were
 attained.

 Final radiated emissions measurements were made on the three-meter, open-field test site. The EUT was placed on a
 nonconductive turntable approximately 0.8 meters above the ground plane. The spectrum was examined from 30
 MHz to 1000 MHz using a Hewlett Packard 8566B spectrum analyzer, a Hewlett Packard 85650A quasi-peak
 adapter, and EMCO log periodic and biconical antenna. In order to gain sensitivity, a New Circuits ZHL-4240W
 preamplifier was connected in series between the antenna and the input of the spectrum analyzer.

 At each frequency, the EUT was rotated 360 degrees, and the antenna was raised and lowered from one to four meters
 in order to determine the maximum emission levels. Measurements were taken using both horizontal and vertical
 antenna polarizations. The spectrum analyzer's 6 dB bandwidth was set to 120 kHz, and the analyzer was operated in
 the CISPR quasi-peak detection mode. No video filter less than 10 times the resolution bandwidth was used. When
 any clock exceeds 108 MHz, the EUT was tested between 1 to 2 Gigahertz in peak mode with the resolution
 bandwidth set at 1 MHz as stated in ANSI C63.4. The highest emission amplitudes relative to the appropriate limit
 were measured and recorded in this report.

 Note: Rhein Tech Laboratories, Inc. has implemented procedures to minimize errors that occur from test
 instruments, calibration, procedures, and test setups. Test instrument and calibration errors are documented from
 the manufacturer or calibration lab. Other errors have been defined and calculated within the Rhein Tech quality
 manual, section 6.1. Rhein Tech implements the following procedures to minimize errors that may occur: yearly as
 well as daily calibration methods, technician training, and emphasis to employees on avoiding error.
