    • If less than the specified value, replace the antenna coax.
  4. Test for less than 5 ohms on the antenna coax center terminal from end to end.
    • If greater than the specified range, replace the antenna coax.
  5. Test for less than 5 ohms on the antenna coax outer shield from end to end.
    • If greater than the specified range, replace the antenna coax.
