I've lowered the gen frequency on its big brother the N1996A and it works fine but I don't have an E7495A to experiment with.
RCHRDM:
That's great! Can you say how you did that?

Regarding "I've lowered the gen frequency on its big brother the N1996A and it works fine but I don't have an E7495A to experiment with."
Could you describe what "it works fine" means? have you done 2-port or 1-port measurements at a lower frequency range (let's say 1MHz or 10MHz) and have you compared the measurement with other VNA?
Do you remember what exact file and parameter you have changed?

The biggest difference is that the N1996A gen out starts at 10 MHz when stock. I lowered it to 1 MHz and it still normalized fine. Its performance was just fine for return loss measurements of HF antennas.

That. There is a model description file in the N1996A firmware that lists the frequency range of the freq generator. If you change the starting freq from 10 to 1 MHz it will obey.
