This is the harmonics test. 
        The 1998 version which goes into effect about 2004 has a clause that 
says the test has to be run twice and the results compared. The comparison 
seems to be fairly restrictive from what I am hearing, and a number of failures 
being reported because they two runs, while within specifications individually 
do not compare exactly with each other. One of the harmonics might be 6% 
different than the other and this causes a test failure. 
        Can anybody comment with more knowledge of what is happening and 
whether or not this is causing a review of this requirement?
        Thanks
        Gary
