1. Terminate the RSA5100B RF Input.
2. Reset the RSA5100B to factory defaults: select Setup > Preset (Main).
3. Select Tools > Alignments and select Align Now.
4. Set the RSA5100B:
Ref Level

5. Set the Frequency (Freq key) to each center frequency in the Residual
Response Center Frequencies table. Set the span for each center frequency
as shown in the table. (See Table 80.) Wait for the averaging to complete,
then press the Peak key on the Markers control bar and record the marker
amplitude in the table.
6. Enter the highest of these signal levels into the test record.
