RE: Recommendations for a portable spectrum analyzer?
Many thanks to everyone who responded. I've got a few models to go with now, and I'll start looking. A substantial help. Thanks again.

Oops! Typo . . . $16 would've been a GREAT bargain!! Thanks to Gary McInturff for pointing it out! It should've been $16K . . . .

Paul, I bought a portable HP (just before it became 'Agilent' - ugh) 7401 EMC analyzer. It only goes up to 1.5Ghz, but I think there is a version that goes higher. It has a built-in hard disk, and a 3.5 floppy drive (it for saving data - traces, analyzer state, and screen, as well as loading antenna factors for the major, popular antennas). It is a color screen with 3 trace capability, screen split, built-in pre-amp, etc . . . I paid $16. It works very well when you need to do troublshooting.

Well, inrush current is dealt with in the unamended standard, but neither that or the amendment deal with it directly. Limits are expressed as 'dmax', the maximum relative voltage change, measured as an r.m.s. value over the worst half-cycle, starting from the zero-crossing. The amendment goes into much more detail about this, and gives relaxed limits for some types of equipment. The main problem with inrush current is where there is a lot of equipment in one location, and there is a power outage. When the power comes back on, cumulative inrush current may reach many tens of times normal load current, causing protective

DIES: Morton Downey Jr., the confrontational '80s talk-show host who paved the way for the likes of Jerry Springer, died of lung cancer Monday at the age of 67, The Associated Press reports. Downey - a chain smoker who would blow smoke into the faces of guests who rubbed him the wrong way - lost a lung to cancer in 1996 and later became an anti-smoking crusader.
