                          Standard Test Conditions and Engineering Practices



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


In accordance with ANSI C63.4-2004 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.
