I recently got an invite to a webinar either an Anritsu or Tektronics
"T-hunting" with a handheld specan. It came to my work email and I'm
out of the office this week. Seems as though the webinar is to be in
late Sept. The target audience is "bug finding" but the techniques
remain the same. Our company (and industry, cellular) is now in a
constant mode of tracking down on-channel interference from an
unbelivable number of sources - oscillating BDA's, cable TV leakage,
hotel cordless telephones reverting to EU 1800 DECT, 900 MHz crane
controls (on selectable 850 MHz channels), metal halide lamps, and on
and on. We will be hunting 700 MHz wireless mics for years to come.

I'm convinced I could make a good living hunting these things down.

I'll check on the particulars for the webinar.

tnx
