Truly impressive. When I was a tech we had an HP 8566B, that was a powerful beast.
Thanks for reviewing this!
Performance looks surprisingly good. Pretty low noise floor with an ok sweep speed. Didnt notice any spurs anywhere.
Neat! You can buy so much functionality for so little money these days.
My collection of RF gadgets includes a Nano VNA and a TinySA (three guesses where I heard about them... 😛), plus a "real" spectrum analyzer (Tektronix 2712, bought surplus from my employers).
Thanks
With a track gen you can use this to set a duplexer or filters. It’s amazing how much you can get for under $200.
Five years ago it would be several thousand for a cheap service monitor.
Great Video and breakdown, I'll use my elbows...LOL I guess knocking off is the Highest form of flattery?😁
With 10 dBm maximum input, they really should include a 10 dB attenuator, as so many devices are >+13 dBm
Neat!
Could you make a video before a microwave and will it show something ? That would be exclusive.
How does the SA6 compares to TinySA Ultra ?
1:02 😂
Interesting, but since the frequency range only starts at 35 MHz, this is not a device for me. I'm keeping the Tiny SA Ultra
Hi does the tiny sa ultra interface with the pc the same? I do like the big screen and mouse option
Hi, unfortunately I cannot answer the question. I have always used the Tiny SA standalone. There are certainly users who can give an answer - or take a look at the Tiny SA homepage?
@@Soundfactory24 sorry I did look at other videos and yes it does so that's fantastic, I shall be getting one soon
Does this record? The reason I ask is going to sound a bit out there... but could theoretically be used as an off the shelf way to analyse the jamming signals coming out the new Russian drone jammers they are fitting to tanks and apcs in the Ukraine?
in my case android app only worked from usb cable. the app didn't find my sa6 by bluetooth.
An Arinst copy. Mine is also 4.1.0 Device ID is 3997737. My Bluetooth slider also turns on but nothing detects a BT client. I think they are Chinese clones of the Russian original. Still useful and better range than Tiny Ultra
me too ..device id is the same like yours ..
Hi thanks for the video.
I think this would be handy for the VHF ham when you have set up for a field day
I have one question how do you get the video up on computer screen. Thank you
Gary vk2kyp
by controlling device using software as mention in the video maybe
Hackrf with portapack can do the same and has more fuction.
how ? what software ?
Maybe so but for under 200 bucks to be able to have a spectrum analyzer and tracking generator is huge.
At a much higher cost
Why don't they build it with an input attenuator built in?
It is not possible to use it for HF bands.
Interesting, but not a fan of some of the issues you encountered when implementing using it. Especially the need to downgrade Java in order to have compatability.
Are you sure it doesn’t have Bluetooth? Bluetooth devices don’t always show just looking in Bluetooth devices….like lora boards for Meshtastic don’t. Pairing is initiated from in an app and after that they appear in the Bluetooth devices list.
I thought that too, but with the Android app no devices were found. I even used a BLE scanner, nothing…
@@TechMindsOfficial👍
Could you er, use the SA to detect a BT tx?
I have just got a nano vna - does what I need re SWR but it is a pain in the backside to use (and refuses to save settings). I guess that's the price I pay for being poor ?
Best to buy from a supplier listed on the official website.
Or a chinese clone. Mine does it all just fine.
1:01 💀
always very wary of installing chinese software, especially when they even say to ignore antivirus alerts etc
You have a FAKE unit. Go look at the REAL Arinst SSA-TG LC R2, close but no cigar. Mike C.
Exactly what I thought too..
it’s rusian arinst device, that company directly supports and helps rusian genocidal army
I opened SA6 - no russian parts there, all american components, BT not present on board
@@fmtvus well of course there will be no rusian parts, same as in their cruise missiles, except for minority of those ancient soviet logic chips and old stm32 clones. the point is it’s obviously made in china but arinst designs, orders and sells it. in this case i suspect they removed the brand logo to evade sanctions. look at arinst sa series, you’ll be surprised how familiar it is 😉
@@sigaretter could this theoretically be used as an off the shelf way to analyse the jamming signals coming out the new Russian drone jammers they are fitting to tanks and apcs in the Ukraine? if fitted to a drone and flown close enough to detect but not enough to lose control of the drone?
@@jamesjrossthere’s no need for that as there’s plenty of trophy rusian jammers of all flavors. typically they use chinese COTS VCOs from aliexpress that generally produce a triangle wave and it’s not really effective when used against FPVs controlled by ELRS (LoRa)
