RF Measurement
RF Equipment
October 14–15, 2026 | Hunt Valley, Maryland
What you’ll learn:
Join Bird University at Tessco’s headquarters for two days of hands-on RF training led by Bird experts. Build practical skills you can apply in the field while working directly with Bird’s SiteHawk and SignalHawk analyzers.
What you’ll learn:
- Antenna line sweeping and Distance-to-Fault using SiteHawk
- Signal analysis and analyzer setup
- Interference hunting using SignalHawk
- Practical RF troubleshooting techniques
Also included: Certification exam, printed certificate and complimentary lunch both days.
Free to attend. Space is limited. Register by October 2.

Cable & Antenna Analysis
Your network is only as strong as its weakest connection. Loose connectors, damaged cables, water ingress, impedance mismatches — small issues quickly become big outages. When you can’t see the fault, you can’t fix it.
What you'll learn:
- Perform accurate line sweeping
- Interpret return loss and VSWR measurements
- Locate faults using Distance to Fault (DTF)
- Diagnose cable and antenna system issues quickly
- Apply best practices for field measurement reliability
Training Options:
- 1-Day: Core fundamentals, measurement theory, practical setup and interpretation
- 2-Day: Advanced diagnostics, real-world fault scenarios, in-depth DTF analysis, and troubleshooting workflows
Ideal for: Field technicians, tower crews, installers, and maintenance teams
Interference Hunting
Interference doesn’t announce itself. It hides in plain sight. Dropped signals. Poor performance. Intermittent failures. Without the right method, interference hunting becomes guesswork.
What you'll learn:
- Understand spectrum fundamentals
- Identify common interference types
- Configure and optimize spectrum analyzer settings
- Use directional techniques to locate interference sources
- Document and validate findings with confidence
Training Options:
- 1-Day: Spectrum basics, analyzer setup, common sources of interference
- 2-Day: Advanced interference hunting strategies, live exercises, complex case scenarios
Ideal for: RF engineers, system integrators, public safety teams, and network maintenance professionals
Advanced RF Power Analysis
Accurate RF power measurement is essential to process stability, equipment performance and production yield in semiconductor manufacturing. Learn how to evaluate power delivery, identify inconsistencies and improve measurement confidence.
What you'll learn:
- Understand forward, reflected, and absorbed power
- Select appropriate sensors and measurement methods
- Calibrate and validate measurement systems
- Troubleshoot power inconsistencies
- Improve process confidence through measurement accuracy
Training Options:
- 1-Day: RF power principles, measurement best practices, interpreting results, calibration strategies
- Advanced: Contact us to discuss customized training.
Ideal for: Semiconductor process engineers, equipment engineers, and RF maintenance teams
