and a three year warranty, so you arenГўв‚¬в„ўt at risk for throwing a lot of money away on something used with the potential to turn in to a un-repairable door stop without warning.Only, so long as the manufacturer supports it, and when the warranty goes away, it may cost so much to get it repaired that you elect to have a door stop anyway. On digitizing analyzers color displays also make a world of difference in keeping the things you are looking at sorted out. You get a great analyzer for the money, and itГўв‚¬в„ўs a new piece of equipment with support (Rigol has a USA field office in Oregon), more bells and whistles than you'll know what to do with, and a three year warranty, so you arenГўв‚¬в„ўt at risk for throwing a lot of money away on something used with the potential to turn in to a un-repairable door stop without warning. I regularly use 3 older HP spectrum analyzers that I got for good prices, (one is an older analog SA, and IMHO analog SA's sort of suck, some may disagree but that's my feeling about them) and if I did it again from the beginning I would probably go with a new Rigol DSA815 with the TG.

I love old HP test equipment too, and while they are excellent performers many of that series of HP/Agilent analyzers were made in the late 1990Гўв‚¬в„ўs, and nearly everything inside of them is becoming obsolete in very fast order, and they are extremely complex instruments that are not simple to troubleshoot if problems develop. Very few hobbyists play in the upper microwave regions, so all that extra bandwidth of the Agilent would be practically useless for many. 6.5 GHz for the Agilent, the Agilent having quite a bit more frequency coverage. oranges comparing the Rigol DSA 815 to the Agilent 8595E in that the Rigol is a 1.5 GHz analyzer vs. The DSA 815 is also Slightly larger and thicker then the Siglent SDS1104X-E Oscilloscope.There would be a small amount of apples vs. Rigol DSA815 Spectrum Analyzer Is a Little Taller and Wider then the Tektronix 2710 But Much Thinner.

This may just be a stop gap still would really like a Siglent SSA3021X Plus it may happen in 2022 you never know? It Will be Nice Having the Added Features of The Modern Spectrum Analyzer. Sadly the Rigol Spectrum Analyzer will still be the odd one out in the Siglent Based Lab.

Really did not want to spend much on a Spectrum analyzer as it only gets used a hand full of times a year and the old Tektronix 2710 usually got the Job Done. I wanted a Siglent SSA3021X Plus But Was Not in the Budget at the Moment and I Missed the Labor Day Amazon Deal and Nothing scheduled for Black Friday that I was able to Find. I Obtained a Rigol DSA815 Spectrum Analyzer (Non Tracking Generator) For The Lab at a Price I Could Not Pass Up.ДЇun times ahead вЂњNot ReallyвЂќ, I will need to make some time to rearrange the bench once again.

I researched the issue and was not really worth my time to fix. After nearly 2 Decades my Tektronix 2710 Spectrum has given up.
