Spectrum Analyzer Performance Verification 3-2 Residual Spurious Response
MS20xxC MM PN: 10580-00307 Rev. D 3-3
38. Record the Marker 1 amplitude reading in Table A-9, “Spectrum Analyzer Residual Spurious Response
with Preamp On” on page A-6 for the MS2036C, in Table A-30, “Spectrum Analyzer Residual Spurious
Response with Preamp On” on page A-17 for MS2037C or in Table A-54, “Spectrum Analyzer Residual
Spurious Response with Preamp On” on page A-30 for the MS2038C in Appendix A and verify that it is
within specification.
39. Repeat Step 28 through Step 38 for the other Start and Stop frequencies with the RBW and VBW settings
as listed in Table A-9 for MS2036C, in Table A-30 for MS2037C or in Table A-54 for MS2038C.
Note
If a spurious signal with amplitude exceeding specification occurs, then wait another full sweep and
observe whether the spurious signal occurs at the same point on the second sweep. If the spurious
signal does not occur at the same point on the second sweep, then the spurious signal on the first
sweep was not real.
