Most use the HP (Agelent) 8447D pre-amp, or one of its family members. John

It has been recommended that the gain be approximately 20-22dB with low noise. I am guessing that most people on this forum that have EMC labs use a similar type pre-amp for their radiated emissions set up. Please excuse me for not providing this information in my initial question. As always, your responses are greatly appreciated.

Is this Audio (10 Hz to 40 kHz)? RF (0.1 MHz to 1000 MHz)? Above 1 GHz? What transducer is feeding the input? Microphone, antenna, etc.? Output Z requirements? Do you need a specific gain, such as between 20 to 22 dB? or can you live with something greater such as 25 dB? Does it need to be adjustable? That information would be helpful.
