                  for suppression of spurious radiation, for limit-
                  ing modulation, and for limiting power.

                 Limiting Modulation:
                 The transmitter audio circuitry is contained
                 in the audio processing board and is controlled
                 by that assembly dependent upon which combination
                 of modulation.

                 There is no provision for limiting power, the
                 design limits the power to 10Watts. There is NO
                 provision for reducing the power.

2.989(c)    Occupied_bandwidth:

             Data in the plots shows that frequencies removed from
             the assigned frequency by more than 50%(12.5KHz) up to
             and including 100% percent of the authorized bandwidth
             the attenuation must be at least 25dB. When the fre-
             quency is removed fromt he assigned frequency by more
             that 100% up to and including 250% of the authorized
             bandwidth the attenuation must be at least 35dB. When
             the frequency is removed from the assigned frequency by
             more than 250% of the authorized bandwidth the attenua-
             tion must be at least 43 + log pY dB. The plots show
             the transmitter modulated with 2500 Hz(the highest
             modulation frequency), adjusted for 50% modulation plus
             16dB. The spectrum analyzer was set with the unmodulated
             carrier at the top of the screen. The test procedure

2.995(a)(b)(d) Frequency_stability:
87.133

     Temperature and voltage tests were performed to verify that
     the frequency remains within the .0020%,(20 ppm)(87.133)
     specification limit.

     The test was conducted as follows: The transmitter was
     placed in the temperature chamber at 25 degrees C and al-
     lowed to stabilize for one hour.   The transmitter was keyed
     ON for one minute during which four frequency readings were
     recorded at 15 second intervals. The worse case number was
     taken for temperature plotting.    The assigned channel fre-
     quency was considered to be the reference frequency. The
     temperature was then reduced to -30 degrees C after which
     the transmitter was again allowed to stabilize for one hour.
     The transmitter was keyed ON for one minute, and again
     frequency readings were noted at 15 second intervals.    The
     worst case number was recorded for temperature plotting.
     This procedure was repeated in 10 degree increments up to +
     50 degrees C.

RESULTS OF MEASUREMENTS: The maximum frequency variation      over the
temperature range was +00.45 to -0.51 ppm.      The maximum   frequency
variation over the voltage range was +0.15 ppm.
