[Boatanchors] BK Precision 1405?

[Eugene Hertz]

ahh, thanks. Do people find a sweep generator useful for BA work? I would imagine using it to sweep an IF section or other LC circuits could be useful, no? I would imagine one would use the output to drive the "X" of a scope.  

I know that I see expensive spectrum analyzers often have a sweep section.

By the way, can someone explain what a "marker" is and what it is used for? I see this often on sweep generators.

Trying to learn a whole entire universe of stuff about electronics!
Eugene
