Source Calibration Adjustment
The source calibration is used to adjust your network analyzer for a flat source power across its full
frequency range. The differences between Port 1 and Port 2 are negligible; therefore, a Port 2 adjustment is
not required.
Equipment Used for the Source Calibration Adjustment
Procedure
1. Connect the equipment as shown in Figure 3-21. Connect a GPIB cable between the network analyzer
and the power meter.
