[Test-Equipment] HP 140T Analyzer

[Tod -ID]

I own and use the 141T with the 8552B and 8553 . It works just fine. 

Get the service manuals if you can [ I think I have scans of them I made
which are in .pdf files.] I had Staples print out and bind the material so
that I have paper copies. I think that folks sell CD's which have the
manuals in a format that allows some searching.

I also have the tracking generator for the unit -8443A I believe.


Very nice to use in some applications. You may want to acquire a Directional
Coupler and Attenuators and thee like from MiniCircuits [or from EBAY].


Tod, K0TO
