(1) Connect the signal generator, externally modulated
I.F. output and frequency
by the l. f. oscillator, to the inputs of the modulation
meter and the spectrum analyser, as shown in Fig. 4-3.

Connect the frequency meter and voltmeter to the
I.F.
OUT socket and check that the i.f. is
approx.200 mV (with the meter reading at the
bottom ofthe black arc) and remains within 10% of
1.5 MHz when the modulation depth of the input
signal is varied from 0 to 80%o. (Keep the leads as
short at possible.) If the frequency is in error see
