JJN Digital HSA-Q1 Feature Focus:
Practical handheld design with fitted retractable stand
For the ultimate flexibility, while sweeping, this device is made absolutely portable for handheld use. Weighing just 1.3kg, and with a battery life of up to 4 hours in one charge, you are free to operate continuously with the device wherever you need. The unit can also operate while the charger is connected should you need a longer operation time. The HSA-Q1 is also fitted with a retractable stand for desktop use when necessary.
Impressive sweep time
In just 0.5 seconds, you can do a Full Range sweep with the HSA-Q1 and for shorter spans and lower ranges, sweep time is an extraordinary 0.2 seconds, in comparison to the newest Delta X G2/6 which has a sweep time of 2-3 seconds and the Delta X G2/12 with a sweep time of 3-4 seconds.
Waterfall Spectrogram Function with Persistence Mode
One of the main features the HSA-Q1 Handheld RF Spectrum Analyser presents is the Waterfall Spectrogram Function which reveals a real-time graphical display in full colour of any detected signals enabling you a further analysis. This feature is extremely helpful when trying to detect modern pulsed digital signals or frequency hopping signals from modern devices such as Cellular, Wi-Fi, GPS, or Burst-based devices. The Persistence mode changes signal colour from blue to red for the longest present ('persistent') signals so you can better identify persevering signals that otherwise might be concealed in a busy RF environment.

Tune & Listen Function
Providing ease of use, with the Tune&Listen function you can direct tune into any detected signal, view the signal's pattern, and see its strength live down to -100dBm, all with a simple press of a button. By using the audio demodulation, you can choose between WideFM, NarrowFM or AM demodulation and listen to detected signals via built-in speakers or provided earphones, which allows you to better distinguish regular bugs with microphones from harmless detected signals like broadcast radio.
5 levels for RF Sensitivity
With 5 levels for adjusting the RF sensitivity, you will be able to uncover all signals whether they are close by in adjoining rooms, outside the building, or even when you need the location for a specific nearby signal source. The Maximum RF sensitivity in Sweep Mode is -80dBm, while in Tune&Listen mode, it goes to -100dBm.
Background Scan Function
Another great feature the HSA-Q1 provides is a Background scan. When needed, the device will study and save the current RF environment. At any time in future scans, the RF environments can be recalled and compared to see if any new signals have appeared in the RF environment since you last reviewed them. New signals will be accentuated on the display thus allowing you to inspect closely.

Two supplied antennae
Supplied with the device are two antennae to help flexibility in allocating specific signals. The Multi-Element 13.44GHz Antenna is provided for general use and a Telescopic Whip antenna is provided for low-frequency use.
Quality build
As with all JJNdigital products, the HSA-Q1 is designed with high-quality materials, manufactured, and fully tested in the UK, as well as comes with the CE certificate. For maximum endurance, the device is encased in a machined aluminum enclosure and arrives in a high-protection military carry case for the utmost protection and convenience while conducting sweeps.
