[Elecraft] XG2 Harmonics question

[Mark Schreiner]

I would think it would be similar to the XG1, which according to its 
manual and according to measurements that I took on an HP8594E (I think) 
Spectrum Analzyer which matched closely to the manual as follows:

2nd Harmonic:  -7 dB
3rd Harmonic:  -14 dB
4th Harmonic:  -24 dB
5th Harmonic:  Not Specified but I measured it, just can't find the 
results now

The manual specifies that the results may vary slightly but should be 
within +/- 3 dB of specified values.  Since there is no filter on the 
output that would change this I would think that the results would be 
similar for the XG2 as the XG1.  Maybe somebody could measure these and 
verify.
