RigExpert AA-600

RigExpert AA-600
RigExpert AA-600, AA-1000 and AA-1400
are powerful antenna analyzers designed for testing, checking, tuning or
repairing antennas and antenna feedlines.
Graphical SWR (Standing Wave Ratio) and
impedance, as well as Smith/polar chart displays are key features of these
analyzers which significantly reduce the time required to adjust an antenna.
Easy-to use measurement modes, as well
as additional features such as connection to a personal computer make RigExpert
AA-600, AA-1000 and AA-1400 attractive for professionals and hobbyists.
AA-600, AA-1000 and AA-1400 are
available in non-US version (with ability to display Smith chart) and US
version (displaying a polar chart instead).
The following tasks are easily
accomplished by using these analyzers:
·
Rapid check-out of an antenna
·
Tuning an antenna to resonance
·
Antenna SWR and impedance measurement and comparison
before and after specific event (rain, hurricane, etc.)
·
Making coaxial lines or measuring their parameters
·
Cable testing and fault location
·
Measuring capacitance or inductance of reactive loads
