Spur free dynamic range
An important parameter of a spectrum analyzer is the spur free dynamic range (SFDR).
This is the range in dB between the noise floor and the strongest signals that can be used without generating

I knew that 500 MHz noise generator I purchased a few years back would eventually be of use.

Normalize does a "Store" and enables "subtract stored" so it is most useful with a noise generator (or tracking generator)
In the settings tab you can change the "Zero level" setting to offset any

Glad to hear Erik.
I think one of the next most requested features you may be receiving is amplitude offset menu to account for

Re: PC SW for tinySA
For good measurement try to keep strongest signal minus attenuation below -20dB if possible

Re: PC SW for tinySA
sorry to disturb as I have a question that's perhaps a little naive...

Herb,
All units are implemented, both in marker info and graph display, hope I did the math correct.

Re: PC SW for tinySA
Can you check if the settings page looks like this
and if not, change to these values?
In the picture you posted it shows "Level/dB" as 7.8 but that should be 2
And attenuation should be 0
If it

Re: Measurement examples posted on wiki
Hi Hans,
Thanks, excellent investigation.
The SI5351 SW used was optimized for fast sweep for my DIY VNA so it is terrible with spurs.
