The most flexible replacement for discontinued Lab TV Analyzers

October 8, 2025.

If your work depends on high-precision TV signal analysis in broadcast environments, you have likely used some of the classic TV Analyzers in the process. The now discontinued R&S®ETL TV Analyzer by Rohde & Schwarz for example has been recognized for years as the industry standard.

Essentially a TV Analyzer is normally built upon a powerful spectrum analyzer but adding plenty more specialized features for handling broadcast signals. A purpose-built decoder enables comprehensive analysis of the incoming signal across all steps of its processing. This functionality allows engineers to locate, troubleshoot, and prevent issues both in signal reception and in its handling at the broadcasting facilities.
