This advanced kit provides a cost effective solution for a high performance, color touch screen Spectrum Analyzer covering 15MHz to 2700MHz. Included in the package kit are these these items:

## Pricing

- **Price:** $394.95 (inc GST) — $359.05 AUD, exc GST

## Availability & dispatch

- Available with a lead time — expect dispatch between Sep 03 and Sep 07.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=SS114992066:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/SS114992066:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

This advanced kit provides a cost effective solution for a high performance, color touch screen Spectrum Analyzer covering 15MHz to 2700MHz.

RF Explorer 3G+ IoT modules are ready to use, advanced Spectrum Analyzer devices you can configure and control easily with Raspberry Pi using a compatible Touch Screen and free RFETouch software.

These modules are cost-effective platforms to develop your own customized Spectrum Analyzer, Power Detector, RF activity alarm, RF sniffer, RF QA test bench, etc.

Programmability and network capabilities of the hosting platform enables remote control and diagnosis scenarios, fully automated RF alarm systems, advanced assistance for unattended detection requirements such as those of radio operators, cell towers and HAM stations.

Additional items required but not included in the kit are:

- Raspberry Pi model 2, [3](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-3-model-b-plus.html) or[ 4](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-4-model-b-4gb.html)
- USB power source for Raspberry Pi and Touchscreen

These items can be reused from other experiments or ordered together with the kit.
