Jim, Going from memory here. Just to the right of the screen there are 6 buttons marked rx test, tx test etc, might be circled in an "analog area" those are straight up what they're marked. Then there's a "shift" blue button left of those that make those analog buttons change to the blue description above each on those, ie spectrum analyzer (the best part of that machine for the money)
Using the s/a. on the left bottom side of the screen there are 3 zones so to speak. Main, something, then marker, in the second area You have to change the generate to "track" instead of "fixed" the rest is easy. That's the short course and also there was some discussion traded about using some free software to do screen captures. It's easy and I use it all the time. I traded up to an 8921 and it works on it also. I forget who should get credit for sharing it here. Nate? Read below. BTW the manual is weak on analog info. 73 Don Kirchner W5DK > > Login to Yahoo Groups and download the BTS Laptop Software: > > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Repeater-Builder/files/FluX%20Research/HP-8924 C/E6\3385A_BTS_SW.zip <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Repeater-Builder/files/FluX%20Research/HP-892 4C/E6/3385A_BTS_SW.zip> > > > Build Cable for 'Serial port 9' as described on page 248 of the Users > Manual: > > http://cp.literature.agilent.com/litweb/pdf/08924-90038.pdf > > > > Set Serial Port Settings on the I/O Configure Screen (TO SCREEN > MORE > >> I/O CONFIG) in service monitor to: >> > > Serial In: Inst > IBASIC Echo: On > Inst Echo: On > Baud: 19200 > Parity: N > Data length: 8 > Stop length: 1 > Rcv Pace: None > Xmt Pace: None > > Set Printer to 'Serial' in the Print Configure Screen (SHIFT PRINT) > > With service monitor connected to laptop running the software press > (PRINT) to initiate a capture.

The reason I bid on it is I seen some ads stating that the unit could be used as a general purpose service monitor, but I need some help on how to set it for use on amateur radio freqs, so far I have not been able to get it to do anything outside of the 800 mhz cell phone freqs Thanks Jim wd0ekr
