RF Channel RF Cnt Gate
RF Channel
The RF Channel field is displayed on the screens listed below when the
RF Display field on the INSTRUMENT CONFIGURE screen is set to
Chan
.
This field displays the current channel number. Channel tuning
eliminates the need to set transmit and receive frequencies directly into
the Test Set. Once the radio’s RF channel standard is selected, you only
have to enter the channel number to automatically set the RF
Generator and RF Analyzer to the correct frequency.
Operating Considerations
To utilize the correct transmit and receive frequencies select the
appropriate channel standard from the RF Chan Std field on the
INSTRUMENT CONFIGURE screen.
The lower subfield of the RF Channel field on the spectrum analyzer’s
RF Gen controls menu also sets the RF channel standard.

RF Cnt Gate
RF counter gate specifies how long the RF counter samples the signal
before displaying the frequency. Specifying a shorter gate time may
enable you to see frequency fluctuations that might not be seen using a
longer gate time.
