Sounds like someone you'd see as a guest villain in Spider-Man or something. I wonder what his superpowers would be... Anyway. Yeah, the special-order did happen a few months back. We've got one of these units in the office, but sadly nobody's had much time to really play with it and try to use it to its full potential. Hopefully someone that bought one, and has been using it, will have more helpful feedback.

Re: [WISPA] Handheld Spectrum analyzer mentioned on list last summer
If you're speaking of the Spectran, I have one and it doesn't seem to work too well for me. The issue for me is that there seems to be not enough resolution to be working with the reletively low power unliscensed systems as we do. I'm sure for paging and gsm it's great but after trying repeatedly to use it for even simple tasks like direction finding and channel sweeping (seeing what's clear), I had to give up and stop wasting time with it. rabbtux rabbtux wrote: All, I recall there was some interest in a German manufactured handheld spectrum analyzer last summer(cost about 1K).
