[QUOTE="brian maddox, post: 3263, member: 158"] okay, i've got a fixed church install with a kludged together pile of various RF IEM and Mics. it's been freq coordinated and it's functioning, but i'd love to get a better handle on what is actually happening in my RF space so i know better how to proceed as i replace items and add more RF. I have NO budget to purchase a Spectrum Analyzer, but since my situation is stable i think there would be some value in renting one and doing some sweeps with all my stuff on just to get a handle on what's happening. two questions. 1. is that stupid? i'm in a cornfield fairly far removed from serious civilization so i'm fairly sure that 95 percent of what i'll find will be either TV stations that are already a known quantity and my stuff. it seems to me there would at least be some value to a weekend test fest. but i'm no RF tech, so i could be wrong. 2. anyone know where i can rent one? i'm thinking one of the portable, self-contained units that will output something i can put into a computer for later reference. i could probably spare a couple hundred bucks to rent one. but there's no way i could pony up the several thousand to buy... Bexel? somewhere else? thoughts? [/QUOTE]
