* n is the harmonic mixing number, depending on center
frequency.
Spans less than 100 MHz are checked
by comparing the displayed frequency span of two signals with their
known span. Wider spans are tested by tuning a synthesized sweeper
from one edge of the analyzer display to the other and measuring the
frequency change with a frequency counter.
