My service monitor (HP 8924C) has both a deviation meter and an oscilloscope to display the demodulated audio. Both the numbers on the dev meter and the peak to peak on the scope read about 15 Khz.
I see another paging system (152.84) that shows the same 15 Khz dev, and a bunch of other ones that show 5 Khz dev. -- Tim :wq On Aug 21, 2010, at 12:18 PM, MCH wrote: > Before you said 15 kHz P-P (IOW bandwidth).
