hi Bob,
wish I had your patience and Money :-) Or maybe you have mine lol...
I guess you're in one camp or the other, I'll stick to Agilent. I could never
get used to reverse polish logic either, despite being told how much better it
was....
As for a click receiver, check out the PMM, I have, it's a 3rd the cost of R
and S, and every bit as good.... Make that better cos' I'm not worrying about
the $8k repair bill for the R&S every time I hook something up.
Cheers,
Derek.

Derek,
I use a R&S ESI almost every day. I love it. Yes, it is expensive, but it did
not come out of MY paycheck. :-) (Well, maybe it did?? :-(
It took a couple of months of using it before I decided I liked it more than
the Agilent 7405 (which I still like). The 7405 has a much easier user
interface, which helps if you are only an occasional user, and it also has a
built-in help system (which includes the GPIB commands for every function -
which I REALLY like). The R&S ESI has a clunky user interface, but after you
get used to performing the repetitive operations with it, you can fly through
measurements with it. In receiver mode, it can display peak, QP and average
measurements all at once.
We are considering buying another R&S soon. We need a 55014 click analyzer
and one of the R&S models has that function built in.
Bob R.
