Silva and Jose and others. Years ago spectrum Analyzers were about $280.00- now have gone out of sight but sure nice to have. One of the pieces of gear that I wore out was a combination analyzer and IF tracker that RCA made. You could check the RF, IF or audio sections and when you plugged it all together, you had a receiver. When I built the Transmitter in my QRZ.COM 1949 picture I was going to an electronic school in Omaha, NE. It had (2) 813's in the final, with a separate VFO. The NC 57 was purchased from Leo Meyerson at World Radio for $72.00 ( which amount he allowed me to pay in installments). BTW, This is one of the best forums on Google. 73, Boyd, W0BUW

Hello Boyd and all,
I has worked on electronics repairs sence 1978 and as You, I has
purchase a lot of test equipmenet and has build some other.
For now I have some Scopes (2 HP 54502A, 2 Kikusui COR5500U and a
Tektronix 475A), some service monitors(01 Marconi 2955A, 01 marconi
2955B, 01 HP 8920A and 01 HP 8924C), some RF Power meters, some RF and
audio generators, some Spetrum analyzers, some analog and digital
multimeters, and another test equipments. But before I get these
instruments, I already has solved many problems for several years.
As Jose Gaviila I also think about to get a HP-8753C (300kHz to 6GHz
VNA) or Anritisu VNA master 5KHz-6GHz MS2026B but it is too much!!!
I hope some day I can get one these!!!
Best Regards,
Silva.
