Default Testing at higher frequencies

wrote:
Does anyone know if there's a way I could test using an analyzer that
does about 50-500 MHz, but at a 1000-ish frequency? I need to test
something in that area, but I don't have equipment that will go that
high. Seems like any analyzer that goes that high is thousands of
dollars. Does anyone know if there's somebody that rents Anritsus in
SoCal maybe? Any suggestions are welcome. I mainly just need to do
SWR.

Thanks,

Test what? for what parameter? reflection coefficient? SWR?

There are lots of equipment rental places in southern California. google
is your friend. ElectroRents, Telogy, etc.

Something like the Anritsu SiteMaster? They're about $7000-8000 to buy,
so I'd expect a monthly rental (for short term) to be in the $700 range.
