Dear Colleagues,

Dear Colleagues,
 
  I've laid out big bucks and purchases an HP 8753C network analyzer so my
previous and trusty HP 8505A system is now offered for sale.  Here are the
details. 
 
   It's completely functional (has served as my own personal unit) and it's one
of the cleanest ones I've ever seen.  It comes as a complete system. All cables,
manuals, overlays and accessories are included.  Anyone buying this unit will
take it home, apply power and have a fully functioning unit.
 
  The HP 8505A system covers 500kHz to 1300MHz.  It's a vector analyzer.  There
is a complete set of overlays so Smith Chart, log freq, etc. points can be read
directly.  All 4 S-Parameters can be measured without disconnecting the DUT
since the S-Parameter test set is included.  The trace can be smoothed and
averaged with the Storage Normalizer Set.
 
   The system comes complete in 4 stackable and locking units as such:
 
HP 8501A Storage Normalizer
HP 8505A Network Analyzer
                 Source Converter
HP 8503A S-Parameter Test Set
 
    All operating and service manuals are included in print form as well as
various application notes and getting started guides.
 
   For anyone able to pick up the unit here, there will be a special surprise.
I will include a spare unit (Storage Normalizer, Network Analyzer and Source
Converter only less the S-Parameter test set) for free for sparing me the
trouble of packing and shipping.
 
   This is the same analyzer seen in the photo on page 9-61 of ON4UN's,
"Low-Band DX-ing," 4th edition.  In addition to antenna matching, it makes
tuning duplexers a breeze.
 
   Please contact me off list if interested.
 
Thanks,
