> As we play with HF and RF, the need for a decent analyzer increases.

> Regarding spectrum analyzers:  I ran into this company (LP Technology)
> at the back of the main hall at NAB.  They have a line of several models
> (including one for Nextel use), the attached price list shows the low
> cost (lptech.com).  A 3.0GHz spectrum analyzer for under 7.0 is almost
> too good to be true.
>
> You don't get something for nothing, and these are not laboratory-grade
> instruments, but for regular maintenance they may fit into your needs.
>
> I'm not endorsing them, as I only had a few minutes to look at them, but
> their cost versus performance seems to be good.
>
> I also ran into a company that makes "zanalyzer", a transport-stream
> analyzer (www.zanalyzer.com).  This is a dedicated computer that runs a
> commercial version of TSReader.  The 1RU box sells for 3.5, the larger
> box sells for 8.0.  Zanalyzer was in the booth next to LP Technology,
> and they were both discussing integrating their products together in the
> future.  You may remember that I mentioned TSReader in the past, a
> $100.00 program that breaks down MPEG II and MPEG IV transport streams
> for analysis.
>
> Zanalyzer is not a replacement for the Streamscope, in that it cannot do
> clock-jitter, and some other intensive tests.  But TSReader, and
> therefore zanalyzer, does allow you to monitor the transport stream,
> including PSIP and channel bandwidths.
>
> It turns out that the person who wrote TSReader (Rod Hewitt) was at the
> zanalyzer booth, and we had a long conversation.  He lives in the DC
> area, and is interested in expanding TSReader to look at 2GHz COFDM ENG
> transport streams as well.
