I seem to remember not being able to see much more than a hint that a
signal was there on my scope, but on a spectrum analyzer, which is
essentially a receiver, I was able to see it just fine - adjust it
just right, and the output looked like a fuzzy little caterpillar! 73

Hi Kevin,
If your calculations are right ( and I have not checked them) then
56 uV would
be very difficult, if not impossible to see on the average
oscilloscope.
On most oscilloscopes the maximum Y axis sensitivity is 1 to 5mV/
cm, so you are
trying to measure something approx 100 times smaller.
