While a 90% discount is really appealing, it must be noted that that spectrum analyzer is
a bit limited in its frequency range...

 From the PDF :

> Level resolution: 0.5 dB

Too bad I noted that only after having ordered it....  I was in the hurry caused by the note "while supplies last"....
The "impulse buying" syndrome stroke again....
