RF and Microwave Vector and Scalar Analyzers Skip the INTRO, Go RIGHT to the CATALOG! These are the RF Network Analyzers we have, both Scalar (Power vs. Frequency) and Vector (Power and Phase vs. Frequency). We have many accessories and fixtures, sensors, plug ins and mainframes. We are happy to help you put together any system you want, just email with your requests. Interested in RF Semiconductors (Transistors and ICs)? CLICK HERE. Interested in RF Diodes (Varactors, PINs, Mixers)? CLICK HERE. Interested in RF Crystals, Filters and Oscillators? CLICK HERE. NAVIGATION: To make your life easier, and help you find exactly what you want, we have broken the on-line equipment catalogs into smaller sections. Just CLICK on the item you are looking for at the left, to see the matching catalog. Large graphical catalogs are a bit SLOW, so please give them a bit of time to load. The top header of each catalog is largely the same, so don't think you are stuck in one place! You can order anything here just by picking up the phone, and calling (250) 769-1834 during normal office hours, 8:30AM to 4:30PM PST, or FAX to (250) 769-4106. OR, Email your order to Susan HERE. SHIPPING: Preferred and Alternate Methods as of June 4, 2013, CLICK for FULL DETAILS ON OUR FAQ Page. Rates are now changing rapidy, often with little notice to us, so all the data has been transferred to the FAQ page for speedy updating.E-Mail Susan if you want a quote for shipping to other destinations, or for something heavy. Sorry, we can't safely send most individual small parts in a regular letter envelope, they get destroyed by the automated handling equipment. Sometimes we can ship very rugged parts in a small padded envelope by letter post. Ask Susan. There is a packing charge for large or heavy equipment, see the FAQ for details. If we have your valid data on file, you can just click on the ORDER email link to place an order and indicate your approval to bill, and we will do the rest. We keep your active information for ONE YEAR for your convenience. If this is the first time you have dealt with us, you can phone +1 (250) 769-1834 or FAX +1 (250) 769-4106 to supply the billing info, or send it by the email link, as you prefer. We accept VISA/MC, international money order, Paypal (to Susan@Okanagan.net), and bank wire transfer. Please note that there are transaction fees with Paypal and wire transfer payments, the wire transfer fee is frankly horrifying. CONDITION: To answer your questions, YES, we completely check and inspect all used equipment, and do not offer any we feel is substandard. That gear is normally scrapped, broken down for parts, or may get offered as-is in the HOT DEALS section, with the unit's condition clearly identified. If there are any marks or detracting features, we clearly state them in the listing. Before shipment, we burn in the equipment for 24 hrs. again and re-check to be sure it is good prior to shipment. The CATALOG will appear below shortly!

RF Power Meters YOU ARE HERE! |
Pacific Measurements PM / Wavetek 1038-D14 Series RF Scalar Analyzers and Sensors to 26.5Ghz Very popular Scalar Analyzers, they accept up to 3 sensors, and display 2 channels of level data, which can be corrected against a reference channel. The 1038-D14 has real time analog operation and digital storage (allows very slow sweeps and trace comparison), and with suitable external sweep generators like the HP 8620C, and the correct sensors, provides full S-parameter analysis at full microwave frequencies. Built in front panel calibrator and accessory storage drawer. XY recorder outputs at rear. Accepts many plug in styles for high versatility. All frames are calibrated with the C10 factory calibration fixture. |

PM/Wavetek 1038-D14 Scalar Aanalyzer c/w H13/V13 Plug-ins |
PMI 1038 high performance scalar analyzer, equipped for 18Ghz operation with 3 plugs ins (H13, V13, V13), 2 ea. 13782 sensors. The H13 has a +10dBm RF calibrator source (front panel) for system set up. Fully overhauled, drift tested and frame calibrated with C-10 factory reference fixture. Available with several sensor/cable systems, see below for additional sensors. Ideal for use with microwave sweep generators like the HP 8620C, Weinschel 430 series, and Wiltron 610D and similar units. Supports both high speed logarithmic readings in dB and dBm, plus relative reference operation in several modes and display/offset factors. Extremely flexible and powerful, ideal for combined return loss, passband and power measurements with directional couplers. Individual sensor calibration provided at each plug in. Most companion sensors can provide at least 50dB and often up to 60dB of stable dynamic range. Includes: H13 or H12 Horizontal Plug-in V13 or V12 Vertical Plug-in (depending on availability) V13 Vertical Plug-in 2 ea. 13782 Sensors (Type N(m)) c/w cables (1Mhz to 18Ghz) Important! to get the best performance from all sensor based power/analyzer systems, allow at least a 30 minute temperature stabilization period after power up, and avoid sudden temperature changes at the sensor location. ALWAYS match the sensor to the plug-in, or calibration will be incorrect! |
