Suggestions for a new Spectrum Analyzer with 6 GHz range?
Posted: Thu Mar 05, 2015 7:08 am
I'm looking for suggestions on a new spectrum analyzer for work that will reach 6 GHz with a tracking generator option. Looking for something NEW, current production that won't break the bank. Looked at Rigol briefly, looks pretty decent for the price point at 3 GHz but the 7 GHz option is substantially more expensive.
We'll be using it two fold, one for WiFi testing/troubleshooting and secondarily for CATV video/data carrier tracking. May end up having to settle for just 3 GHz to cover the 2.4 GHz band and skip looking at 5.3/5.8 entirely.
Will be purchasing a couple other WiFi specific troubleshooting tools to work in part with this analyzer.
Thoughts?
