Spectrum Analyzers
SignalHawk Series
Take the spectrum in your hand—Bird's SignalHawk spectrum analyzers deliver real-time visualization and precise measurement in a rugged, portable package.
When Every Reading Matters
Carry Precision With You
You need fast, reliable spectrum analysis wherever the work takes you: across a field, up a tower, or throughout a building. Debating whether to carry heavy equipment causes delays. Hesitation or guesswork isn't an option when you're:
- Hunting interference in dense RF environments
- Measuring channel power under pressure
- Validating EM leakage and compliance in real time
Spectrum Analyzers That Fit the Way You Work
Is SignalHawk a Fit?
SignalHawk is a powerful tool—but like any precision test equipment, it should match your needs before you commit. Here’s how to know if it’s the right fit.
SignalHawk is ideal if you need:
- Fast, accurate RF spectrum analysis in the field
- Portable interference hunting—across a property or across a county
- Clear, actionable results without a steep learning curve
SignalHawk might not be the right fit if you:
- Need scripting or programmable analysis
- Require calibration-grade measurements or coverage beyond 7.5 GHz
- Need an integrated tracking generator
SignalHawk or SignalHawk-AOA?
Standard SignalHawks can measure the spectrum from 9 kHz up to 6 or 7.5 GHz and perform measurements like adjacent channel power, occupied bandwidth, and phase noise.
Angle of Arrival (AOA) SignalHawks include all the capabilities of standard SignalHawks as well as enhanced hardware and more advanced measurements including:
- AOA Locate, for hunting interference sources
- Field Strength
- AM/FM Demodulation
- GPS Signal Quality
- Spectrum Mask Pass/Fail
It’s Easy to Find the Right Fit
Choose Your SignalHawk
Choosing the right analyzer doesn’t have to be complicated. Here’s how to find the perfect fit for your needs.
Select a Series
Need interference hunting capabilities? GPS quality measurements? Choose between our Standard or Angle of Arrival series.
Choose a Bandwidth
Pick the model that fits your work: the 60S covers up to 6 GHz, the 75S goes to 7.5 GHz. Both start at 9 kHz for full-spectrum flexibility.
Consider a Kit
SignalHawks come ready to go, but an RF Master Kit adds adapters, an RF power sensor, and a SiteHawk for full site coverage.
The Experts Say
What is a Spectrum Analyzer?
A spectrum analyzer is a powerful and ubiquitous piece of RF test & measurement equipment that displays the power present at a given frequency.
