A1 - Acoustic noise rating nomogram
B1 - Test bench for measurements of protection against
      impulses of magnitude 1,2/50 of the 6kV peak value
B2 - Test bench for measurements of protection against
      impulses of magnitude 1,2/50 of the 6kV peak vaue
B3 - Correction factor for air density
B4 - Voltage waveform of an ideal impulse
B5 - Examples of curves for the determination of the
      ideal peak value
B6 - Examples of irregular waveforms

Defines the conditions and methods of measurement to be used to ascertain the performance of a radio transmitter and to make possible the comparison of the results of measurement made by different observers.
