In my experience the EMCO near field probe set and in particular the larger loop is the most useful. I have tried the E field probes and inevitably finish up using the loop, sometimes with a pre amp.
You can make to loop very easily using a piece of coax! Above 6 GHz I guess a horn be best as you can get gain from it. > My company is looking to buy a RF probe set for test bench > evaluation for radiated emission.

Thanks, Wendy Nya I am also looking into near field probes and am curious if anyone has experience with Beehive. http://beehive-electronics.com/ These appear reasonably priced and I found a reference to them in an Agilent slide presentation. Also, are any near field probes useful to any great degree above 6 GHz? Peter Tarver [email protected] - This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
