spectrum display help plz

One of our installers (Rolf or Satelliteman) will no doubt be able to wise you up on your particular analyser, but from that display you can obviously centre it on a particular transponder for a basic check of carrier/noise ratio, but without a dBuv scale, readings from the display can only be comparative.

hi frnd

In the sptrm u can see 11666 is the starting freq and 12542 is the ending freq and the freq 12140 mhz is the peak freq where u can get the maximum voltage.

thanks guys,all info or advise appreciated,would it be worth the upgrade on my satlook micro for this spectrum analyser or is this just a basic spectrum analyser,that isnt worth it as it doesnt show everything it should,as it costs about £95 cheers(never used one before ,but am willing to learn)

hi rolf or Satelliteman anything to add about this readout your opinion appreciated

I wouldn't want to do without my spectrum display, makes setting up a motorised system much easier.

£95 seem a lot to me for an upgrade, has anyone actually phoned Emitor yet to ask if they can just buy the upgrade and not the case as well?

thanks rolfw final couple of questions about this

1 does the display ive posted tell me everything you would want to know
2 say i was on 7w would 8w give me a false reading

thanks again
