Add the 85685A RF preselector to the 8566B or 8568B general-purpose spectrum analyzer, and you have a test receiver for specialized applications. The RF preselector enhances these high-performance spectrum analyzers with tracking filters and preamplifiers that cover the 20 Hz to 2 GHz range. The spectrum analyzer/test receiver is sensitive to low-level signals while providing overload protection from out-of-band signals. The result, for tests in the presence of high-level interference, is a measurement range 30 dB greater than that of the spectrum analyzer alone. (The improvement is even greater in the presence of broadband pulse-interference.)
