Hy other heavy iron is a gently used HP 3585B that I got for free. It is a sweet instrument but so large I had to put it in a different room from where the workbench is.
I've been playing with the TinySA too much lately when I should be doing other work.

correct in that I did not expect the TinySA to be able to do it. But I
bought one anyway. :)
I am also one of the "few radio enthusiasts" who would do this, and in fact, the first thing I did when I got my first tinySA was look at close-in performance.? I was hopeful, but it won't do SSB transmitter IMD tests.? But I have another SA that will, and the tinySA will do so much amazing stuff, including LOTS of things that my bigger, much more expensive SA won't do, or won't easily do, so the tinySA is well worth the price..? I currently own 3 tinySAs, and I'm thinking about getting another one to keep in the car.? (You never know when you might need a spectrum analyzer, you know.)
