Why am I seeing the message “Intermediate Frequency Out of Range”?

There is too much power being delivered to the instrument.The Spectrum Analyser is a Swept Superheterodyne design and does not have preselection filters. Therefore, the mixer is seeing all of the power (full 9kHz-1.5GHz frequency range) regardless of what you have set for the start and stop values....

Setting up the RSA3000 and RSA5000 series spectrum analysers to capture the lowest level signals

The lowest level signal you will be able to see captured on a spectrum analyser will be limited by the DANL or displayed average noise level so the lower the DANL the  better.To obtain the lowest DANL the RSA3000/RSA5000 series analyzers will need to be operating within these parameters and settings:...

Common HAM and Broadcast uses for a spectrum analyser

1. Measuring the performance of a crystal filterHams use crystal filters in their radios to enhance selectivity, but short of installing thefilter there is really no easy way to test one. A spectrum analyser with a tracking generatormakes it fairly easy. Simply feed the tracking gen...
