Description
HP 85032B Type N calibration kit for refurbishment, almost complete. It is missing the inner extender that extends the plug inner when the N socket open is in place for calibration.
I have cleaned up the components a bit and they all seem to be within their specifications within the limitations of what I can measure. The female load is perhaps not as good as the male load below 6GHz but could still be within the specification I think. In the plot the green trace is the male load, the red trace is the female load and the blue lines are the specifications for these. The plots were done by calibrating the network analyser with another one of these kits then measuring this kit. Whilst the kits are only specified to 6GHz the results seem OK to 20GHz. The nut on the male load is a bit stiff sometimes depending upon the socket on which it is placed.
The box is in mediocre condition and could use a bit of glue in some of the corners and a sand back and some varnish. The latch is a bit wonky. The foam in the lid is starting to go off as it almost always is with kits this old. The foam in the bottom was completely stuffed so I have replaced it sort of. The small pieces of foam keeping the smaller pieces in place are not glued in place. A better job could certainly be done on this aspect. Included is a floppy with the kit User Guide and the CK_ file for use in network analysers.
Only what is shown is included, there are no other bits or anything else included.
Local pickup from near Camberwell Junction, VIC. Prepayment is OK or leave the money under the mat. Postage would be about $25 to anywhere in Australia including tracking.
