	Try the HP 3566 or HP 3567.  These are PC-based packages that run
	in MS-Windows(tm) and work with the HP 3565S hardware.
	Hewlett-Packard has several other data acquisition products, you 
	can find them under the "Signal Analyzers" section of the catalog, 
	specifically the Dynamic Signal Analyzers.  Call your local sales
	office or I can help you get more information.

	Note that, as I work for HP, I'm not a totally unbiased source so
	this isn't a 'review', just 'information'.  But it is pretty good 
	stuff and worth looking into.

	Some general specs:	HP 3566A		HP 3567A
	channel count:		8 or 16			2 to 16
	cross channel accuracy:	+- 0.1 dB		+- 0.1dB
	phase:			+- 0.5 degree		+- 0.5 degree
	dynamic range:		72 dB			80 dB
	max frequency span
		spectrum:	12.8 kHz		102.4 kHz
		network:	12.8 kHz		51.2 kHz

	Measurement capability includes frequency response gain & phase,
	coherence, cross spectra, swept sine, transient capture, user math, 
	and bunches of other stuff.

	Good luck!
		Paul.
