  • Abstract
    The general classes of receiving set measurement used by the authors are outlined as special engineering tests and production tests. The apparatus and methods for both are described. A new form of radio-frequency oscillator, designed for this work, is described. Shielded test booths used for receiving-set measurement work are described. The importance of care in selecting the conditions of test used in making quantitative measurements on a receiving set is emphasized.
