20Hz-40MHz $1250 OBO CASH
Description: Up for sale is a complete, bench-ready vintage RF testing setup featuring a fully operational HP 3585A Spectrum Analyzer (20 Hz to 40 MHz). This unit works well has been meticulously cared for and is a dream setup for an engineer, ham radio enthusiast, or vintage audio/RF collector. Everything listed below is included in the package. I retired a few years back and dont use it very often anymore. I am not looking to separate the items at this time.
The spectrum shown in one of the pictures was taken with it connected to my 10 meter ham-band vertical antenna. The other is the baseline with no input.
