Just a comment in general here. There is that decision to go boat anchor
HP or new Chinese. For years, I went boat anchor. However the Rigol
stuff is pretty good. [They OEM the cheaper Agilent gear.] You need to
evaluate your goals for the instrument. If you working in a corporation

I just had a discussion about older spectrum analyser versus the new Rigol type
SA.
They are saying the Rigol is -80dBc.
Unfortunately I don't know what the specs of mine are.
Could someone help me out with some noise floor figures for the following?
* HP 8566A
* HP 8568B

Hi
You really need to know a few things about the Rigol spec:
1) Is it simply a noise measure? If so, at what bandwidth and frequency (narrow
will always be lower)?
2) Is it a signal spec? If so with what signal level and settings? Does it
include / exclude IMD / harmonics?
3) Is it the spec

How can I make a noise floor plot for my HP 4395A?

Those plots came from my old freeware app ( http://www.ke5fx.com/gpib/pn.htm
). It supports the 4396A but not the 4395A; see
