Re: [amsat-bb] Spectrum Analysers

[Ron Parise <ron.parise@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Many years ago HP had a series of Application Notes covering how
to use a spectrum analyser to perform a variety of measurements. 
They were the best I've seen. I thought I had copies of them here
that I could get the publication numbers from but I can't find them. 
I looked on the HP (www.agilent.com) web site and found a Technical 
note called Spectrum Analyser Basics. It is a 1.3 MB pdf file. 
It's more of a "What is a Spectrum Analyser" than "What do you do 
with one" but it is OK.
