Thanks again, I've downloaded the manuals on most of the HP DMM's from that era. I'm now looking at the 3456 or 3457. I've got some prices on a cal and yes around $140 should do it for a NIST

Thanks, I guess I will have to just keep looking. For $50 I would love to have one of these, or one of its sister units. And being in Los Angeles, there is always a likelihood I can find one that

Re: S11 and S22 comparisons on 8753
Merry Christmas If you have not calibrated the VNA, then you are just seeing the uncorrect performance, and the fact that varies is no surprise. In fact, I'm a bit surprised you managed to get 35 dB

Re: S11 and S22 comparisons on 8753
Correction! We are seeing this with a good load attached, no calibration. Same load gives different curve for each port. I would expect the reflected power to be much lower than -30 dBm. Of course

You're welcome, and all, enjoy the holidays. It may pay to download the 1993 HP Catalog, that was the last year all in the 345x line were available for sale, so you can compare and contrast the

This is a common failure when someone using the 608 to test a transceiver accidentally transmits into the 608. Use of the HP-11509A Fuseholder will prevent such failures. Jeremy N6WFO

I have to say this response has really given me the most food for thought. It provided exact details about the models and the pro's and con's of each. It also made me realize something important.
