This test should be performed under the following conditions:
• Beginning Frequency: 902
• Ending Frequency: 928
• VSWR Expected Results: Must be 1.5 or less for the specified frequency band.

• Ending Frequency: 928
• VSWR Expected Results: Must be 1.5 or less for the specified frequency band.
• Return Loss: Must be –18dB or better for the specified frequency band. Any
deviations from this return loss warrant further investigation.
• Test Point: Feed line connected to the antenna at the top; test from the lightning (or
surge) arrestor to the antenna port.
• Results: Test results must be saved in. PDF format.
