In addition to the power of the digital channel (67.0 dBµV in previous figure) this
also shows the tuning frequency or channel, depending on the tuning mode selected,
and the offset frequency to calculate the digital channel power and the deviation
frequency of the central tuning calculated by the demodulator, measurement that
indicates the adjustment in the channel tuning.
For the power measurement of a digital channel to be correct it is essential to have
previously defined the channel bandwidth using the Channel BW option, in the
Measurements Configuration menu that appears when pressing
