Abstract

Applicable to radio receivers and tuners for receiving frequency-modulated sound-broadcasting emission with rated maximum system deviations. Covers mostly methods of measurement by means of radio-frequency signals applied to the antenna terminals of the receiver. Chooses the measurements and specific conditions of test in order to allow the comparison of results obtained by different observers and on other receivers. Does not define performance requirements.
