Indeed, now I see it. As we expect around +10 dBm, the noise-floor might
be raised by about 20 dB.
I was more considering what is the reference noise here, is there a
single oscillator as reference? Can a quieter reference oscillator be
used? Can a cross-correlation setup be done?
Cheers,

The phase-noise still looks fairly high. How do you measure this?

Now that's interesting I just re-ran the measurement, and got a quite different
result which is attached. The spurs have GONE.
My only guess right now is that the E4406A power supply is getting quieter as
it has been on for longer (I've only had it powered for short periods before
now).

Hi,

The local power is 50Hz, so I can understand the 100Hz spurs, but I
don't quite "get" where the 200Hz spurs are coming from. Or is that
just BAU harmonics?
Consider full-wave rectification of 50 Hz, the power consumption load on the
capacitor after the rectifier creates an inverse sawtooth wave of
100 Hz, and sawtooth waveshape have both even and odd harmonics.
While much of this is regulated out in the next step, some of it makes it
though.
