39. Only applies in stepped spectrum mode with digital image rejection and IF dither enabled.
40. Expected input level: –50 dBm, mixer level offset: 0 dBm, pre-amp OFF, noise correction OFF. Enabling pre-amp and/or noise correction
will yield a nominal 10 dB improvement. Known non-input related spur at 2.4 GHz nominally < –85 dBm.
41. Input level: –10 dBm, expected input level: 0 dBm, mixer level offset: 0 dBm, averages: 50.
42. N is the LO multiplication factor. See LO multiplier table for the N value versus frequency range.
43. Input level: 0 dBm, expected input level: 0 dBm, mixer level offset: 0 dBm, noise correction ON, averages: 10.
44. Suppression of signal at IF frequencies when turned at least 2x IF filter bandwidth away.
45. Expected input level = –10 dBm, Mixer level offset = 0 dB, Peak to average = 0 dB, fC = analyzer center frequency,
fIMAGE = input frequency that is an image to analyzer center frequency, fFINAL IF = 240, 300, 326 MHz, fFIRST IF = 5040, 5100, 5126 MHz.
Digital image rejection only available for frequencies > 3.6 GHz in stepped spectrum mode.
46. Expected input level = –50 dBm, RF attenuation = 0 dB. LO emissions refers to the LO power leaking out at the RF input port.
