Based on the limited info you provide, perhaps some on this forum
automatically know the level of rf you need to measure as well as the
desired frequency accuracy.  Not me.

Any spectrum analyzer can measure any level, with appropriate
internal/external attenuation and/or pre-amplification.

They don't specify frequency accuracy, but the minimum available BW is 50
kHz, which forms a lower bound on that number. Also the 5 ppm stat on the
local oscillator is 12 kHz at 2.4 GHz, and 36 kHz at the third harmonic.
Those will likely rss with 50 kHz uncertainty.  Again, don't know what your
frequency accuracy need is, but most specs use 1 MHz BW at these frequencies
for EMI work.
