5.7.2 Com Testing
Before starting com testing, note the following:
1. Disable the audio compressor unless otherwise specified. The compressor
can be disabled for testing purposes by manually grounding the
SQUELCH/COMPRESSOR TEST input at Pin 3 of J2.
2. The 8.33 kHz channel mode uses a channel ID that does not match the actual operating
frequency. Channel ID is used to specify test frequency. Unless otherwise specified, set
the receive channel to 127.000 MHz. Table 5-1 shows the channel ID and frequency for
the standard receiver test channels.
3. Unless otherwise specified, set the receive channel to 127.000 MHz for 25 kHz channel
mode, and 127.005 MHz for 8.33 kHz channel mode. Where no channel mode is
specified, perform the test at 127.000 MHz, 25 kHz channel mode.
