All,
If you worry like I do about equipment loss, damage and other Murphy type
effects, ask your local cal lab if they will do on-site calibrations. We
had our Haefely Trench burst and surge testers calibrated recently on-site
by PCI here in Austin, Texas. The cost was very reasonable, plus it gave
us the opportunity to witness the process and help the technician operate
the equipment, saving him some time. I like the fact that the equipment
stays in the lab and avoids the stresses and risks of shipment.

We schedule in advance and usually get 1 week turnaround on cal plus
shipping time. We specify 2nd day Fedex. This makes the disruption to our
lab scheduling a minimum. Winter can pose some unexpected delays due to
weather conditions on the open area test site. Plan your cals for summer
when possible.
Liberty Labs cal our antennas, LISNs, CDNs, surge generator, ESD simulator,
EFT generator. Agilent does our spectrum analyzers. The key to minimum
down time is arrangements in advance.
