RigExpert AA-35 ZOOM HF Antenna Analyzer

Description

The RigExpert AA-35 ZOOM is a portable, self-calibrating analyzer, designed for measuring SWR (standing wave ratio), return loss, cable loss, as well as other parameters of cable and antenna systems in the range of 60 kHz to 35 MHz, with incredible ZOOM capability. Able to measure 25, 50, 75 and 100 ohm systems.

The RigExpert AA-35 ZOOM offers very useful and in-depth information in a very easy-to-read graphical form. As mentioned above, you can access this information both as using it as a standalone device or by connecting it to a PC or laptop, although the information is much more detailed when you connect it to a PC.

The following tasks are easily accomplished by using this analyzer:

– Rapid check-out of an antenna
– Tuning an antenna to resonance
– Making coaxial stubs or measuring their parameters
– Cable testing and fault location, measuring cable loss and characteristic impedance
– Measuring capacitance or inductance of reactive loads
– Comparing characteristics of an antenna before and after specific event (rain, hurricane, etc.)
