Stability

Spectral Purity

4-2 Characteristics

Drift

Because the analyzer frequency is corrected on retrace, drift occurs
only during the period of one sweep. This drift is in addition to
frequency reference error due to aging.
Frequency Span
> 100 kHz to 5 1 MHz
*After 1 hour warm-up at stabilized temperature.

Noise Sidebands

Refer to Figures 4-2 and 4-3 for typical noise sideband performance.
