The MESA is a portable, handheld RF receiver that detects known, unknown, illegal, disruptive, or interfering transmissions.
- Easy to set up and puts sweep data at your fingertips with user friendly navigation. Auto antenna recognition makes changing antennas a snap
- Full touchscreen control provides quick access to Spectrum, WiFi, Bluetooth, Mobile Bands, and SmartBars modes
- Portable, handheld unit can sweep target areas using a full selection of fixed, bracket mounted, and hand held antennas/probes
Principle of operationMESA has the portability and operational features not found on other spectrum analyzers. It provides tools, specifications and design features for locating unknown signals throughout a wide frequency range up to 6 GHz (12 GHz with the Down Converter antenna).
Features- MESA displays a full range of frequency data to 6GHz (12GHz with the Down Converter Antenna).
