If the Noise density is to be measured on the analyzer with a 75/50R minimum loss pad, setup as follows;

- Setting bandwidths to ALL AUTO, Detektor to "Peak", load 5.7 dB correction for the loss pad.

- Average set to "100", PreAmp to "On", Attenuation to "0", Span to show one transponder only.

-Use the noise marker to measure the dBm/Hz value on peak of the carrier
