Making a Basic Measurement
A basic measurement involves tuning the spectrum analyzer to place a
signal on the screen, then measuring the frequency and amplitude of
the signal with a marker. We can measure an input signal in four
simple steps.
1. Set the center frequency.
2. Set the frequency span.
3. Activate the marker.
4. Set the amplitude.
As an example, we will measure the front panel 300 MHz calibration
signal. First, switch on the spectrum analyzer. (For maximum accuracy,
if the analyzer has just been powered up, allow for a 5-minute warmup.)
