I won’t go near PASShole as I call them. Haven’t used Labtronix. Will take a look. Thanks for the tip.
Yeah I’m already doing that with the DG1022Z. I’ve got a return loss bridge and power sensor which I have been using with it as an antenna analyser for low HF. Does the job but I’ve got some VHF cavity filters to design. Would rather like something that will sweep VHF and low HF as it’s a pain in the ass using the AWG for sweeping crystal filters as well. Main problem is it’s difficult to calibrate out the fixture insertion loss. Much easier with an SA with TG.
SVA is interesting as it is a VNA too.
What frequency range/limits are you working with ?
The Bode plot function in the 4ch X-E's will work at least to the BW of the scope.....if you have a high enough frequency AWG. Oh and BTW a member cracked the coms protocol for Siglent AWG's and with the help of a bit of code uses a
Rigol Feeltech AWG for the Bode plots sweeps......controlled by the X-E.
Mentioned in the 4ch X-E thread a little while back.

Plus a stock shipment as well......would've been faster to send them by sea !
Yeah, real keen to get it and have a quick fiddle before I pass it onto member hendorog for a proper workout against Agilent and SH VNA's he has. Should be fun !
