For example, the analysis of the debris at the testing site of the first U. S. hydrogen bomb, Ivy Mike, ( 1 November 1952, Enewetak Atoll ), revealed high concentrations of various actinides including americium ; due to military secrecy, this result was published only in 1956.

For instance, NASA has extremely rigorous software testing procedures for many operating systems and communication functions.

For example, primality testing is the problem of determining whether a given number is prime or not.

For example, consider the problem of primality testing.

For instance, one interface used during early development could declare everything public, whereas one used in testing and deployment could limit this.

For years, Seatopia, the undersea civilization, has been heavily affected by nuclear testing conducted by the surface nations of the world.

For this reason, a simple program is used first when testing a new tool chain.

For example, mammal-eating killer whales were long thought likely to be closely related to other mammal-eating killer whales from different regions, but genetic testing refuted this hypothesis.

# For " spit " testing, bring the potentially pregnant dam to an intact male.

# For progesterone testing, a veterinarian can test a blood sample for progesterone.

For modern parchment makers and calligraphers, and apparently often in the past, the terms parchment and vellum are used based on the different degrees of quality, preparation and thickness, and not according to which animal the skin came from, and because of this, the more neutral term " membrane " is often used by modern academics, especially where the animal has not been established by testing.

For example, an emerging practice in the competitive field of biotechnology is to require the physical results of experiments, such as serums and tissue cultures, be made available to competing laboratories for independent testing.

For this reason, the possibility of experimentally testing quantum gravity had not received much attention prior to the late 1990s.

For hardware with the performance used in orbital launch vehicles, expenses of $ 2000 –$ 10, 000 + per kilogram of dry weight are common, primarily from engineering, fabrication, and testing ; raw materials amount to typically around 2 % of total expense.

For Peirce, the idea of "... endless investigation would tend to bring about scientific belief ..." fits negative pragmatism in that a negative pragmatist would never stop testing.

For the Athenians, and Themistocles personally, the winter would be a testing one.

For the past 15 years the plastics industry has used ultrasonic testing in the field of wall thickness measurement of pipe extrusions.

For example, when testing instructions for assembling a toy, the test subjects should be given the instructions and a box of parts and, rather than being asked to comment on the parts and materials, they are asked to put the toy together.

For ruled-based testing, these samples were used to construct lines of various length and orientation that fell into these four separate categories.

For instance, in the design of a compiler, regression testing could track the code size, simulation time and compilation time of the test suite cases.

For information on other cervical screening tests and Human Papillomavirus testing, see cervical screening.

For more about making inferences via likelihood functions, see also the method of maximum likelihood, and likelihood-ratio testing.

For air traffic management, researchers are creating and testing concepts to allow for up to three times today's level of aircraft in the national airspace.

For example, engineering standards are a means by which decentralization of supply inspection and testing can be achieved — a manufacturer adhering to the standard can participate in decentralised systems of bidding, e. g. in a parts market.

For example, the introduction of FM stereo transmission allowed backward compatibility since new FM radio receivers could receive monaural signals generated by old transmitters.

For example, diodes are used to regulate voltage ( Zener diodes ), to protect circuits from high voltage surges ( avalanche diodes ), to electronically tune radio and TV receivers ( varactor diodes ), to generate radio frequency oscillations ( tunnel diodes, Gunn diodes, IMPATT diodes ), and to produce light ( light emitting diodes ).

For early domestic radios, tuned radio frequency receivers (" TRF "), also called the Neutrodyne, were more popular because they were cheaper, easier for a non-technical owner to use, and less costly to operate.

For this reason, the related figure of effective noise temperature is therefore often used instead of the noise figure for characterizing satellite-communication receivers and low noise amplifiers.

For example, in satellite television receivers, converting the microwave downlink signal to a much lower intermediate frequency at the dish allows a relatively inexpensive coaxial cable to carry the signal to the rest of the receiver inside the building.

For systems exploiting data fusion before detection, there is a need for accurate time and or phase synchronisation of the different receivers.

For the next decade, radio tinkerers had to build their own radio receivers.

For example, early receivers cannot process the FasText coloured-button hyperlinking data, but are able to ignore it.

For instance if different data types ( part of a specification like dates ) is used to generate reports the reports will be different and not the same in the sender and receivers applications.

For example, marine GPS receivers often have a " man overboard " function, which instantly creates a waypoint in the receiver for the boat's position when enabled and then begins displaying the distance and course back to that position.

For HD Radio, the figure is only one percent of the station's analog wattage, in part because it is an in-band on-channel method, which uses sidebands that must prevent interference to adjacent channels, especially for older or cheaper receivers which have insufficient sensitivity and / or selectivity.

For example, the peak power output rating of surround sound receivers is often taken at 10 percent THD.

For the first time since 1997, three Argo receivers caught for more than 1000 yards on the season.

: For other digital television receivers, see set-top box.

For instance, its sound output came in the form of connecting ordinary telephone receivers to large paper cones — a primitive form of loudspeaker.

For digital satellite TV signals, a dedicated commercial satellite receiver such as a GI DSR4400X or a Scientific Atlanta / PowerVu satellite receiver is needed for each channel that is to be distributed by the cable system ; these are usually rack-mountable receivers that are designed to take up less space than consumer receivers.

For really high-performance receivers, such as satellite communications receivers and military / naval receivers, two-stage (" double conversion ") and even three-stage (" triple conversion ") superheterodyne processing is frequently used.

For a period, BBC London identified itself at the top of the hour as BBC London 94. 9 and BBC Radio London on digital, in spite of the fact that the station was labelled as " BBC London " on DAB receivers.

A sample from the Los Angeles Times radio page for December 1949 from 3 to 9 pm shows KFI-FM offering those with FM receivers programs with titles such as Afternoon Melodies, Classics, Music For You, Symphony Moods and World of Music.

For example, devices cannot be designed to copy content ; devices must " frustrate attempts to defeat the content protection requirements "; high-definition digital video sources must not transmit protected content to non-HDCP receivers ; and DVD-Audio content can only be played at CD-audio quality by non-HDCP digital audio outputs ( analog audio outputs have no quality limits ).

For television, IPG support is built into almost all modern receivers for digital cable, digital satellite, and over-the-air digital broadcasting.
