Re: Oscilloscope needed if I have TinySA and NanovVNA?
The textronix definitely has the old school cool factor. I have the 1202X-E and frankly it's pretty good. It's not as hackable as the Rigol scopes, but frankly you can't go wrong with it. Though if I

Re: tg
To avoid reverse leaking it is necessary to have at minimum 80dB reverse isolation between LO output and mixer input. This is usually realized? with at minimum 2 20dB amps, a 20dB attenuator at the
