Antenna: Testing and Inspection

Antenna

INSPECTION
Measure the resistance between antenna terminal and each antenna wire.
If an antenna wire is OK, resistance will be less than 1 Ohm. If an antenna wire is broken, resistance will be more than 1 MOhm.






NOTE: When checking the continuity, wind a piece of aluminum foil around the tip of tester probe and press the foil against wire with your finger.




To locate the broken point, move the probe along antenna wire.
