Instruments and Methods of Measuring Radio Noise

Abstract

This paper embodies the relevant agreed recommendations of the Joint Co-ordination Committee on Radio Reception of EEI, NEMA, and RMA, as to the nature, essential characteristics, and performance of an instrument for the measurement of radio-noise voltages. It further gives detailed descriptions of the recommended practices for measuring radio noise directly from low-and high-voltage apparatus, for making noise measurements along overhead lines, for determining broadcast field-strength levels, and methods of collecting data for the establishment of radio-noise standards.
