Thank you for the video. I have a question regarding the use of a lower band pass. If we report using a 5MHz probe while using a 3.5MHz band pass receive filter, wouldn't that result in lower sensitivity than what is theoretically expected from the reported equipment? Can this be considered a breach of procedure or code?
Depends on what's in your procedure I guess. To my knowledge, I haven't seen a code which specifies a receiver filter requirement. However, it's super important to do all the fiddling (RX filter, voltage, pulse width, etc.) BEFORE performing the sensitivity calibration. In fact, after making the TCG, any change to any parameter affecting sensitivity should require recalibration.
What sensitivity blocks can you use for API 650 and API 1104 conventional UT Flaw detection.

Love that spreadsheet!
Another great video, thank you
Spreadsheet?
