[Microwave] For Sale: HP Spectrum Analyzer, Preselector & Sweep Oscillator - Prices Reduced

[Bob Kocisko]

As part of the liquidation of my microwave test equipment, I’m offering the following items for sale.  HP Spectrum Analyzer, Preselector & Sweep Oscillator which I purchased from a ham friend’s estate.  It consists of:

        1.  Spectrum Analyzer including HP 141T mainframe / display, HP 8555A RF Section  & HP 8552B IF Section.  Price reduced to $250.  Copy of the operating instructions section from the manual is included along w/ pwr cord.   Weight is abt 60 lbs + packing.  The 141T / 8555A / 8552B offers absolute amplitude calibration capabilities fm +10 to –125 dBm over a frequency range of 10 MHz to 18 GHz with high resolution of 100 Hz.  With external mixers the freq range can be extended to 40 GHz.  The CRT has variable persistence storage & the trace is bright & well focused..  I only used it a couple of times.  You can see a 10.368 GHz signal displayed with the Preselector inserted.  

        2.  HP 8445B Automatic Preselector is a YIG tuned filter for up to 18 GHz.  Tested  a couple of times to get the display in attached photo.  Copy of full manual (operation, calibration & schematics) + pwr cord are included. Reduced to $125. Guessing it weights abt 28 lbs + packing.  The Preselector really should sell with the Spectrum Analyzer.  Both the spectrum analyzer & preselector are in gud physical condx.  

        3.  HP 8620C Sweep Oscillator with HP 86250B RF plug-in (8.0 to 12.4 GHz).  Reduced to $200 OBO.  I hvn’t used it other than to verify it powers up since don’t have way to test it.  Includes pwr cord.  No manual found in files.  Sweep Osc. appears in gud physical condx except for some scratches on panel of RF plug-in.
       
I prefer to sell all items  together & will discount to a total of $500  as a complete pkg.  Will sell the Sweep Oscillator separately.  It only weights 28 lbs + packing so easy to ship.  One photo attached.  More photos upon request.  Prefer local pickup then you can verify operating condition.  Otherwise need to include cost of packing, shipping & insurance.  The 141T / 8555A & 8552B is heavy (abt 60 lbs) & will need to be dbl boxed.
