Abstract :
A programmable computer-con trolled RF Test system capable of testing deliverable radio equipment was developed and is now operating in the Manufacturing activity of Government and Commercial Systems, RCA Corporation. The system is capable of automatically testing receivers, transmitters, sub-assemblies and components in the HF, VHF, and UHF frequency bands and is controlled with an RCA 1600 Computer. Programming is performed by Manufacturing Test Engineers using a high order test language. This paper describes the technical characteristics of this system.
