Yes, it works well for "ham" use. I using one myself. (recently brought "up to snuff" with MUCH help from Rick @ amtronix)
I would suggest a visit to: http://www.amtronix.com/hp8924c60.htm for a great "primer" on this monitor. As others have mentioned, the "detractor" of this monitor is its bulk. It is best suited to sit on your bench and never move. :) Chris Kb0wlf From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:repeater-buil...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Mike Dietrich Sent: Thursday, September 24, 2009 9:45 PM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] OT :HP question for the group Hi everyone, I have been looking at the HP8924C service monitors that are showing up surplus from the cellular carriers these days. I have not used this particular model so I have a question. Most state that it will do CDMA testing. Will this unit work in a "standalone" or "manual" mode as "normal" communication service monitors do ? The ones I have seen have a box on the screen for the cellular channel number, do you have to set it up by scrolling in the cell channel numbers or can you enter your own frequency on the keypad as you would on a "normal" service monitor. Will it do non cell freqs as for ham testing. Thanks in advance, Mike No virus found in this incoming message.
