Note on numbering format
Owing to the technical limitations of our computer operating system and the tabular calculation software
used for the present document, numbers are shown in the continental European format rather than in
the standard anglophone manner, i.e. commas are used in lieu of decimal points and vice versa.
For example:
Anglophone format: 1,000.00
Continental European format: 1.000,00
In the transmitter display, however, numbers that are four or more digits long are shown without separat-
ing commas but with decimal points, as follows.
Example: 1000.00
