Greetings all

I have an Advantest spectrum analyser with a quasi peak detector that I use
for pre compliance work.  I am having trouble with the high noise floor and
I am concerned about my measurements reading low due to overloading the
detector (no input attenuation due to the high noise floor etc etc).

I have been told (mainly by sales reps) that by using a preamplifier (cheap,
not a problem to buy) and a preselector (expensive, could be a problem) I
can obtain results that are virtually equivalent to a receiver (very
expensive).

Has anyone tried the analyser/preselector approach and if so, how have you
got on?

Regards
