CHECK OUT THE WIKI The purpose of the wiki is mainly to allow you to find information on instruments, either from either
- The model number
- The function(s) listed below. Some instruments have multiple functions - for example, the 4195A is a VNA, spectrum analyzer and an impedance analyzer. Therefore the 4195A is listed in multiple categories

Re: 16900A cleanup and modernization experience including installation notes!
Glen, Yeah, I was sent 16900-14121.ISO, and 16900-14122.ISO (for the BIOS upgrade). That's all I really needed for the 16900A.

Re: 8753ES YIG oscillator circuit WCA
You do need to check that before you do more esoteric troubleshooting. If the 3.8 GHz oscillator is off, then for a given YTO frequency the IF will be off too. Too much IF error, and the YTO loop will

I used a Mini Circuits SLP-1200 filter. It worked fine - the spurs were easily visible. I paid about $25 for it on ebay, but even new from Mini Circuits, they are less than $40.
