No doubt one of the most revolutionary tools for the RF side of broadcasting was the advent of the network analyzer. Prior to its invention, measuring the response of an antenna system was more or ...

Anritsu has announced a pair of cable and antenna analysers with options up to 6GHz, one with a spectrum analyser. “RF cable runs continue to be an integral part of radio communication base stations, ...

The one piece of gear that’s essential for EMC troubleshooting is a spectrum analyzer. You can buy a decent portable for about $10k or used ones go for $1k to $5k if you don’t mind the 30 to 80 pounds ...

Antenna design, fabrication, and performance verification are key to the success of both the astrophysics program and the satellite telecommunications program. To support these efforts, a free space ...

Back in the 1960s, when I started working in radio broadcast engineering, an oscilloscope was my “eye” on what was happening with equipment. That tool served me well and is still in daily use in my ...
