The Tekbox TBCG3-RN2 comb generator is used to test radiated emission setups. The comb generator can be used to validate the performance of an antenna or the configuration of a spectrum analyser. The TBCG3-RN2 has a rotary switch to choose between five fixed comb frequencies and an external comb frequency input with a range of 5kHz to 200MHz. A switchable RF amplifier may increase the output signal by 20 dB. The comb generator comes with two monopole antennas, one for frequencies up to 300-500MHz and one for higher frequencies. The batteries can be charged with an external charger and are not supplied with the TBCG3-RN2.
