BIRD AT-Series

BIRD AT-Series Antenna Testers can best an entire band in a matter of seconds, with accurate results regardless of antenna cable length. Menu driven, software-defined keys and digital keypad quickly select operating mode and enter test parameters. A self-contained RF source precisely, sets the test frequency. A built-in adaptable antenna jack mates a wide range of standard RF connectors.

Swept Frequency Measurements – Show VSWR, Match Efficiency or Return Loss across the entire band. A moveable cursor pinpoints scan frequency and digitally displays the corresponding measurement value.
Single-Frequency Mode – Can be used to optimize antenna performance and troubleshoot intermittent problems.
Limit Testing – Quick Pass-Tail indication compares measurements to user-selected.
Audible Indicator – Pitch varies with match condition for easy, hands-on antenna adjustment.
Field-Strength Measurements – Verifies the output of devices such as portable radios and cellular phones.
Data Storage – Saves and recalls up to 12 scans in nonvolatile memory for long-term monitoring of antenna performance.
Serial Communication Link – Optional Software uploads data to a personal computer for analysis or storage.
Backlit Liquid Crystal Display – Produces text and high-resolution graphics.
Portable – Lightweight, easy-to-carry, with rechargeable batteries.
Rugged – Designed to meet the harsh environment requirements of MIL-T-28800.

The AT-Series contains a serial interface for downloading and analyzing test data with a personal computer.

Single frequency mode for antenna tuning.
