Troubleshooting (N8973B, 74B, 75B Analyzers)”, on page 133 in this
service guide.
8. To continue verifying press FREQ, Zero Span. Verify the input attenuator
on the analyzer is set to 10 dB. (Look near the top of the display near the

If the analyzer is not in 10 dB of input attenuation press AMPTD,
Attenuation, Mech Atten 10 dB.
