Hi folks,
it's my first time writing here as I hope you can help me out (like many times before as a reader of this forum
) ).
I'm a development engineer for rf electronics and software and an electronics and rf hobbyist.
A few days ago I've bought an Advantest R3961B S-Parameter test set which should be added to my 8753C with some glue logic, it's a test set specified from 300kHz up to 3.6 GHz but a quick hookup to our campany's VNA showed it works quite well up to 6 GHz with roughly 24 dB directivity.
Now I have a big problem with one of the N connector test ports on one of the directional bridges, the previous owner crapped the inner conductor
.
I've managed to disassemble the bridge and remove the connector but the conically shaped center conductor is broken.
Does anyone of you know which manufacturer builds similar tapered N connectors or where I can get a replacement?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Here some pics of the opened bridge, only taken with my mobile but I will add some better ones:
