HP/AGILENT 436A POWER METER - RF/Microwave [DIGITAL display]
CALIBRATED, PERFECT CONDITION, warranty, may include sensor cable.

Do NOT reply on Newsgroup, if email: remove "death2spammers" strings in my 
address (repeated twice).  Price $199/$229, shipping from Amplitech, Inc., 
New York, USA

Posted on Ebay, item# 330020367897.  Goto www.ebay.com and enter 
"330020367897" (without quotation marks) into search window (or item#, 
etc.); BUY NOW OPTION is AVAILABLE, i.e. NO need to wait for Auction end 
($199) - set to $229.  Description is there (on Ebay), copied down here for 
your convenience, BUT to see PICTURES/etc do check that Ebay listing.  Best 
done via Ebay  - SAFE for you/me (my feedback is 100% positive there & 10+ 
years on Newsgroups), but if you're not into Ebay and unless a bid already 
placed, I can take it off and sell outside Ebay.
Description copied here (see pictures on Ebay):

Concise description as you can GET DETAILED DESCRIPTION/SPECS/MANUAL at 
AGILENT website (www.agilent.com->search->enter 436A, power).  People who 
buy Test Equipment are professionals/engineers - know already the specific 
model specs or can quickly locate.  HP/Agilent 436A is one of the most 
widely used/legacy RF/microwave powermeters, thus often supported in modern 
ATE software and even modern Agilent meters almost always offer 436A 
emulation mode (I personally never had a chance to automate it), HPIB/GPIB 
is included (back connector) and tested with ATE software OK, the address 
selection switch is inside.

1. CALIBRATED - VALID THRU JULY 2007
2. CONDITION is LIKE NEW.  PULLED FROM WORKING ENVIRONMENT at AMPLITECH, 
Inc. (www.amplitechinc.com), one of the best-known RF/Microwave companies - 
a spin off of Miteq, Inc.  Used as recent as yesterday for military 
amplifiers testing, assure you precisely calibrated/ready to be plugged into 
your environment

3. Sensor not included at this price, in fact I am using it with a new meter 
that didn't come with its own sensor, but I CAN add a near-new sensor cable 
at a very small fee, just email me.
4. As mentioned above, docs/specs/manuals are at Agilent website, it's a 
simple meter comparing to dual-head/modern meters.

Reason to sell
We're fortunate now to afford a company-wide upgrade program, e.g. for this 
powermeter we're now using a dual-head $5000 unit, so this original unit is 
up for sale.  Will post an older/analog HP435 + waveguide sensor (thermistor 
type?) for $95 only - lookup my Ebay userID for "all items for sale by this 
member" - should find that meter soon (again, pulled from working 
environment, but long ago, could be nice as secondary/backup meter).
