I bought a spectrum analyser for business use in 1984, which cost me £6500.00. The sort of stuff that is out there today is far more convenient and easy to use. The only advantage the forty year old stuff has is the front end attenuators and calibration, having said that, I've not used it in twenty years. For £77 I might just treat myself. Thanks for the video Andy.

You most definitely should imo ... Really cool to get your perspective ... As a mid 30s guy who's grown up and lived in the nyc metro area ... Super interesting to hear how the scene was during decades before my time and even more so from the other side of the pond. If you will definitely be able to make use of it, I actually have this exact SA but I inadvertently ended up with 2 identical units after ordering one and 2 wks post estimated delivery date, I reported it not arriving and was sent a replacement which arrived via complimentary express delivery. Fast forward nearly 7-8 weeks, the original one arrived. I only opened it to confirm what it was but nothing beyond that and would love it to get into the hands of an active enthusiast. My dad and brother will be traveling to England in mid April for business, and I could have them ship it domestically within the UK to you. Im not big on selling stuff via eBay or Craigslist etc but with this sort of thing, gifting it to an internet stranger with an interesting anecdote sounds good to me lol. If interested, drop a reply and we can figure out via email.

In the mountains of western North America wildlife collars have largely transitioned to satellite, but many have retained dual capability wjth VHF for facilitating field use in real time as GPS data can be 6 hours old based on the upload interval (because uploads are hard on battery life). As most bears nowdays only receive a collar if they mis-behaved near town, now you have the potential to go for a backcountry hike and if you see some wildlife sign, switch on your Tiny SA and see if there are any potential bad actors in your vicinity.

With a directional beam antenna this would be the top rig for Fox Hunting. Also finding QRM causing problems in your station. It can show you harmonics and more. I found a problem that was wiping out my HF station. It turned out to be the "Wall Wart" PS that charges my Apple laptop. When I located it I unplugged it and the S meter went from 7-9 down to 1-2 and stations started coming in. Use one to locate a miss placed Bluetooth device "if it is on and charged" or a cell phone if it has the WiFi turned on. 73s

The TinySA is awesome. A bench spectrum analyzer is really out of financial reach. And? Portable, NOT! It really lets you explore your World. I noticed door burgler alarm system, even my key fobs. Great to find noise, just use a portable AM transistor radio to "steer" you by nulling, and then get close with the NanoVNA. Did you know it's ALSO an RF Generator? Yep! The NanoVNA (and the TinyVNA and the RTL-SDR as well!!!) Are GAME CHANGERS. As are our modern scopes. All the Best! 73 DE W8LV BILL

Most scanners front ends were so cheaply made you didn't need 900MHz to listen to cellular. Just tuning through 400MHz and upwards would allow you to listen to cellular. Incidentally, I was asked to move on when I was auditing freqs from a football club. The massive spike I saw on the screen was the security bloke calling his boss to say there was a bloke with something outside the gate. On being approached he asked me to step over the building line as I was bringing the club into disrepute. My reply asked if that was the same level of disrepute the supporters curried when they lost the game? I stood the other side of the non existent building line for 15m and then left. The bloke was vacuous and did not understand my explanation of what I was showing him.

Interesting video. I have an earlier version of the tiny SA. It doesn't have the bells and whistles yours does but it meets my needs. On the other hand I just replaced my nano VNA with a nano VNA-F and what a difference between the 2 units. Bigger screen, broader range up to 3 Ghz, and better user interface. Since I am an amateur licensee who like to experiment with antenna design it will come in handy. Back before I retired I worked in the defense industry I used HP VNAs and toward the end used an Agilent PNAx. This Nano VNA has a lot of the same functionality but at a fraction of the cost. Maybe you could do a video about it and how it is used in antenna analysis. 73 de N1ABE >>

Great video, a couple of tips for you (and others).... these things are super sensitive to front end blow out when hooking up an outside antenna that may have static build up, suggest grounding your antenna center conductor to ground prior to hooking up to the Ultra.. also, suggest swapping out that SO-239/SMA adapter to a pigtail of the same genders, hanging that heavy adapter AND the cable and it's PL-259 off the SMA is asking for a snapped SMA. Also, I'd be a bit more careful about keying up a portable like you did the Icom so close to the unit, same reasons, you'll blow out the front end, especially in light of the fact I didn't see you turn off the LNA.. sure, you may be on an external antenna but that's a plastic case and you don't have any attenuation inline if it also came down the coax... thanks for the great video....

Try looking around 20MHz. If I'm right the visiting ET scout craft in the 15 meter diameter size will have a main tone around 20MHz and complex upper harmonics. They use field propulsion instead of jets or rockets and it seems that part of that is electromagnetically activating the surface and at very significant power levels. Because even modest power radio travels very far these ET craft could be detectable at extreme distances when zipping about or in hover mode. They should be recognizable because the tone wont contain audio, video or digital. It should just be a very steady tone. With triangulation we could pinpoint them and determine speed. The frequency should strictly correspond to size of the craft.

When you switch to the view of adding the antenna (around 1:30) the audio is unbalanced - coming out of the right ear more than the left. An easy fix in post 👍. Thanks for the cool videos.

intercepting the signal is the easy bit you can do that for cheap decoding and decrypting is the real hard part

Re legality, I believe the wording is that, in the UK, you are only allowed to listen to transmissions *intended for general reception*. ie not 'private communications'. Therefore, scanning is legal prima facie. Further, as private communications eg government emergency services, cell phones etc are encrypted, there is nothing to which to listen, and you wouldn't even be able to determine that they are private communications.

why I bought mine: when the OTA tv industry moved to digital TV back in 2009, TV stations were allowed to keep their channel number that was assigned back when a channel number was assigned to a specific 6 mhz band of frequencies. now, it is just a label. I have a CCTV system. 24 cameras, 4 each, on 6 DVRs. I put the output of these DVRs onto unused analog channels and distribute these through the house via a CATV system from a demolished apartment. problem: you can't tell if a channe; is set on a frequency used by a new user after the OTA channel moved out. The TVs are not capable of demodulating the unfamiliar signaL I use my tiny sa to determine if the anlog channel space is open before I set the channel in my Rf modulator, and avoid the aggravation caused by interference a secondary use is: take it to a truck stop to show CB users the actual effect of tweaking up a CB to put more fire in the wire. show that person that, in reality, there is more power going out, but not in the CB band where it belongs. think about this: do the golden screwdriver guys tell CB users to use bigger fuse, since they are inherently using more DC power to send more RF power?

Is it using slope detection to pick up the FM? That would explain the need to tune off centre.

With this device is its limitation the size of the antenna you attach to it? Like can you feed in a bigger antenna for more range? Like a static antenna in your yard for example? (I’m a noob trying to learn ❤)
