Muriel, Unless your spectrum analyzer is equipped with a tracking pre-selector, or a high pass filter, you run the risk of high level emissions at frequencies below 150 kHz desensitizing the front end. This will result in readings that are lower than the actual levels. I remember seeing this a

Assuming 50/60 Hz power and CE measurements made at a CISPR 16 LISN EMI port, the only possible difference I can think of is increased probability of 50/60 Hz overload with a spectrum analyzer capable of measurements that low. If your spectrum analyzer doesn't tune below 9 kHz, that shouldn't be
