Except as noted herein, the following conditions and procedures were observed during the testing:

In accordance with ANSI C63.4-2003, section 6.1.9, and unless otherwise indicated in the specific measurement
results, the ambient temperature of the actual EUT was maintained within the range of 10 to 40C (50 to 104 F)
unless the particular equipment requirements specify testing over a different temperature range. Also, unless
otherwise indicated, the humidity levels were in the range of 10% to 90% relative humidity.

Prior to testing, the EUT was tuned up in accordance with the manufacturer's alignment procedures. All external
gain controls were maintained at the position of maximum and/or optimum gain throughout the testing.

Measurement results, unless otherwise noted, are worst-case measurements.

                                                Test Procedure

The UUT was tested in an Open Area Test Site (OATS) set 3m from the receiving antenna. A spectrum analyzer
was used to verify that the UUT met the requirements for Radiated Emissions. The UUT was tested by rotating it
360 with the antennas in both the vertical and horizontal orientation and raised from 1 to 4 meters to ensure the
                                                                               th
TX signal levels were maximized. All emissions from 30 MHz to the 10 harmonic of the highest tunable
frequency were examined.

There is no requirement for occupied bandwidth in part 25 for portable earth stations however the emissions
masks are based upon the occupied bandwidth. This information is reported for reference only.

                                               Test Procedure

The UUT was connected directly to a spectrum analyzer. The occupied bandwidth of the modulated output was
measured and plotted.

The UUT set to CW operation, placed inside an environmental test chamber, and connected directly to a
spectrum analyzer. The span and RBW was adjusted for narrowband operation to ensure an accurate
measurement of the CW signal could be obtained. The temperature was varied from –30 to +50°C in 10°C
increments. After a 30-minute soak time the output frequency was measured. At 20°C the voltage was varied
+/- 15% from the nominal voltage.
