Re: Checking HP 8672A output level: are these drops normal?
This is not good advice. The amplifier, to a first degree,CAN be tested with the isolators intact. This is the standeard working environment and the isolator protect the amp in-situ, thats why tey are

I do have a HP437B with a 18 GHz power sensor so measuring the power is not a problem. The issue is that it is not easy to disconnect the SMA connectors between the amplifier, isolator, high pass
