Group,
 
On several occasions during radiated immunity EMC testing, I have observed
products deviate
or even fail and subsequent manual spot checks at the frequencies of interest
have revealed no
anomalous behaviour. 
 
I saw such behaviour on a product I was testing recently, and spent a long
time conducting spot
checks at the frequency and the immediate neighbourhood without much success
replicating 
the failure. I tried turning the modulation on and off and even applying the
modulated field instantly
on and off without much success. I did a sweep again and the deviation was
back like clockwork!
 
What is the explanation for this and there are techniques for getting round
this 'problem'?
