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?
