I passed both but am still recovering and might need a few more days to calm down. My sympathies. I've heard about the queues in those places and they must be pretty bad indeed to make the international news! Is it true they recruit retired-disabled ex-NYC taxi drivers for their counter staff? [snip missing numbers] Yeah, I know. I'm sorry but you know about as much as I do! If I'd zoomed out on those shots there's a bezel around the outside of the screen on that SA which is *supposed* to show all that info. Unfortunately, it's bust. This is a partly working unit I picked up at a ham rally and am in the process of re-commissioning. Unfortunately, my No.1 RF SA (the 8566B) is currently out of action with a recent "YIG oscillator unlocked" error message, so there's nothing to fall back on. It's kind of tough to do stuff with all this busted equipment. Even the equipment I picked up in prime working condition is letting me down lately. All I *can* say about those photos is the SA is set on the 0.01-1.8Ghz display range, I'm sniffing the VNA output with a few turns of wire rather than a direct connection, the 40dB attenuation is set (and seems to work!) and the VNA output frequencies in each picture are the filenames for each of those pictures. So the situation is "not ideal" but you have to work with what you've got, I guess. -- No deal? No problem! :-D |
