Yes. The TINYSA is highly useful for frequency domain measurements.
As well, the NANOVNA is equally useful for impedance domain measurements.
As well, an o'scope is equally useful for time and amplitude domain
measurements.
Any ham should have all of the above!
In these modern times, none of the above will break the check book or
credit card.

The calibrated signal generator output on the TinySA Ultra is a great tool
to calibrate or check your S meter and also very useful for determining
and/or checking your receivers sensitivity. It also provides modulated AM
and FM modulated outputs(AM amplitude as well as modulation frequency
adjustable, FM deviation adjustable). The TinySA Ultra is a great tool for
checking a transmitters harmonic content assuming you have appropriate
attenuators. The TinySA Ultra is useful for viewing and sniffing out
sources of RFI. The tinySA Ultra can view a much much larger spectrum than
a SDR receiver. The TinySA Ultra can measure a transmitters output level
assuming you use appropriate attenuators, the TinySA Ultra can be used to
make accurate field strength measurements if you know the antenna factor.
I’m sure there are many other useful options/features but the ones I listed
are common features that I use all the time. The TinySA can do most of
what the TinySA Ultra can do but it’s more limited.
