I’ve long thought about using one of the Linear Tech or Analog Device RF sensor ICs as a front end to an HP power sensor head with blown thermistor/diode.
They have a great frequency and sensitivity range, come in a tiny package that could fit in an existing head, and come in linear and log versions.
A local friend and I have done a lot of work on exactly that. The
idea has great potential, but there are some dragons hiding.
