  • Abstract
    A brief description is given of a device that provides a self-contained battery operated integral reference source and radiator system that is temperature-compensated and portable. The usable frequency range is from 30 MHz to 1 GHz. The antenna system is capable of generating 100-dBμV plus levels with a repeatability within ±0.5 dB. The device described meets all of the criteria of independence from cable and antenna effects because it is self-contained and portable for site correlation or verification
