Re: New Spectrum Analyzer Discussion
I think maybe you misunderstood my posting. Or I didn't write it well.
I mentioned I have an HP and an avcom but they are not what I am discussing in my posting.

3457a on the way
So I have a 3457a on the way that passes the self tests. What are the odds of it actually working when I get it? What should I look for as a general failure for these devices? I always assume

Re: New Spectrum Analyzer Discussion
The prices I see at:

make this an expensive spectrum analyer. You were lucky to get one for
$250, if the basic price is $3375
I think I'd rather keep my HP 70000

New Spectrum Analyzer Discussion
I see there is some discussion about an older large spectrum analyzer. I thought I would share my experience with a new very cheap but quite useful spectrum analyzer.
I have an HP 8558B and an Avcom

Re: DIY: Repair of HP Step Attenuators
All,
I wonder: I have a sticky microwave relay in an HP 8593A. If the relay has been closed (ie for LOWBAND) for about five minutes and is opened, it won't close again unless it's had a chance to

Re: What is a good shortwave radio to use with HP 8568B SA?
A converter with a software defined radio does sound like a good idea – if
I can find something that will work with my Mac or linux machines, that

Duh! A USB SDR dongle with an up converter! The thought never entered my mind. What great way to go. I was thinking more strictly hardware (with my limited mindset). The funny thing is, I have one

Re: What is a good shortwave radio to use with HP 8568B SA?
Pretty much any shortwave radio that tunes 21.4 MHz and the modes you want should work. Sensitivity is not an issue as the IF output on the rear is a high level (you'd likely need an attenuator).

Re: What is a good shortwave radio to use with HP 8568B SA?
Try one of the emergency radios with AM-FM-SSB.
Or, a $20. RTL-SDR USB dongle on your computer with a Ham-it-Up
HF converter between it and your HP 20mHz output.
All-mode 0.5 - 900+ mHz plus a bunch

Re: What is a good shortwave radio to use with HP 8568B SA?
Thank you for your response. I would prefer both AM, FM and SSB but
economic compromises may have to be made. FM at a minimum.
As to the frequency, I was assuming that I would be able to use

Re: What is a good shortwave radio to use with HP 8568B SA?
What frequency range are you looking for?
I usewd a DEI R-1037F telemetry receiver on the 227 MHz IF output of an
AIL 757 SA.
Do you need AM / FM / other?
