Donald I think you need to look at warranty ,current calibration and the possibility of it having to be repaired. This sounds like an older unit so will it used at one station or will it be moved about? I think it would be hard to get repaired so if it isn't going to be moved about then you probably have a solution. If its a mobile unit then you should probably invest in something a little newer. Just my own thoughts of caution. Dan Anchondo Vivotech,Inc
From: owner-emc-p...@listserv.ieee.org mailto:owner-emc-p...@listserv.ieee.org]On Behalf Of Donald McElheran Sent: Wednesday, February 23, 2005 7:24 AM To: emc-p...@ieee.org Subject: Radiated Emissions > 1GHz All: I am considering the purchase of a HP 8569B Spectrum analyzer for pre-compliance radiated emission measurements beyond 1GHz. The unit is a very reasonably price and would appear to be satisfactory for pre-compliance requirements. Intend to configure the SA with a Low noise 1 GHz - 18 GHz pre-amp and 1-18 GHz horn antenna. Wondering if any one on the forum had any experience with this particular SA and whether or not there are any issue which we should consider or be cautious of.
