Greetings forum!
I am considering a purchase of a used service monitor. If I move forward, I would be looking for one with a built-in spectrum analyzer, Sinad, Signal, deviation, and RF Generator, wattmeter with a 100watt input peak capability. This would be used for two-way radio calibration and repair for frequencies of 1MHz up to 1GHz. I would like to have a unit as new as possible that could be calibrated via a certified facility, say like Sypris in Dayton Ohio.
Let's assume the working budget is $1500-$2000.
With that preface, what would you recommend by first-hand experience or what you have used while in the field. I have been looking at eBay and found a few within that price range, but may be headed to Hamvention to investigate further.
Thanks for your time...
