Hi,

Radios like my FT-757 and FT-101 have an IF output. If I take this
output to a spectrum analyizer and the SA center frequency is set the
same as the IF frequency, will I have a spectrum monitor which will
display over the complete bandwidth?


While it will obviously depend on the particular radio, a lot
of rigs take their output from in front of the first IF filter and
so can diplay several MHz either side of center. My Kenwood
TS-850S(AT) and HP141T combo works fine in this way.
