I am sure you also addressed this but since I have 2 cents to add....... A front-end overload condition on the receiver/analyzer, or an overload at the pre-amplifier, can cause errors in measurement that may seem transparent. A local transmitter could be overloading your measurement system and increasing your emissions readings.... Again, take it at what it is worth! (2 cents) Hi Randy, Where I live, lucky to have electricity :-) When I set my software up, I played with attenuators to make sure that with my signal path, I have at least 20 dB over the Class A limit before I get into any of the signal measurement chain elements either going into compression or saturation. When ever I get an outage like this, I always add 10 dB in the signal path and remeasure... Just to make sure the two curves track. Cheers, Derek.
