Back from a week out west and having a day out as "Matt Dillon"... or at least per what "Miss Kitty" says (no photos I'm aware of thankfully).

I accomplished the mission objective of picking up the awesome $50 Pacific Measurements 1038-D14, H13 and x2 - V12's with a 12868 power detector that came from the NRAO VLA post BCCS and into the SCM. I also think there are signs of Bait Theory, NSA, POS and MIP (at least buying the cheaper items will give me the faith and courage to purchase the more expensive or if I find... signal generator) happening too and definitely HFO.

That adds to the 1038-D14 NS20 w/NS201 and 1038-D14A N10 systems I have with two 15273 detectors and an RJ21 Telco 50 cable plus some directional couplers I already had prior (you know... though need documentation regarding). Plus I have four more detectors on the way.

I also picked up some other items ($20 USB 3.0 Mobo desktop that I thought just for the heat sinks and case was worth it since is only a mobo with video card and case, a round bottom copper bowl, misc items for random projects from the goodwill stores) and a free Brother MFC9970CDW Color Laserjet that the engineering office lady said needs the fuser replaced and otherwise works great. Double side scans also so will come in handy too for scanning the above pile of PM/Wavetek manuals. A manual binder machine would be handy to unbind and rebind... hhhmmm...

Ordered a "WAVETEK 6000 INSTRUMENTATION COMPUTER NS20 APPLICATION SOFTWARE MANUAL" for the reference library for these systems. Would be nice if has the code.
If anyone has any documentation related to the N10, NS20 or NS201... I sure would like a copy. I just missed buying a N10 manual on eBay since sold before I received a reply from the seller who listed as "Wavetek 1499-15126 Network Analyzer Model 1038-N10 Operating + Maintenance".
Last night I also figured out that the ~$4 shopgoodwill.com Motorola ATRIX HD MB886 smart phone is super picky with USB cables and required USB Debug Mode enabled to allow for Mass Storage data transfer with "one" of the cables I have out of the four I tried. Still haven't figured out how to access the phone internal memory yet... though am able to transfer from the SD card. Drivers on the laptop I'm guessing is the issue. I picked that up for an upgrade from the LG Thrive LG-P506 since that still runs Android 2.2.1 and I want something that runs at least Android 4.0 for some mobile Audio and RF Spectrum Analysis capabilities testing.
