SRQ is definitely a pain, but is hard to do without if you're doing
anything with multiple instruments on the bus; my current problem is
trying to read frequency from a 5370A and voltage from the 3456A to plot
VCO performance. Without the SRQ, I'm getting missing voltmeter readings.
Daun Yeagley,
I just went through the whole SRQ annoyance with my phase-noise utility. I
was trying to use them to detect end-of-sweep conditions. I ended up giving
up on SRQs altogether in favor of using long (1000-second) timeout periods.
They seemed kind of twitchy... if I remember right, the thing that fi
