spectral-scan to listen only

RouterOS General

Right now I can’t find a reason to use the spectrum analyzer because the R52HN card transmits readings of -6 even when the card is disabled or tx power is allfixedrates to 0.

How can I make the spactral scan to listen only?

At the same time I did this test I used a cisco spectrum analyzer and found the readings right next to the 2.4ghz antenna to be nothing. That is right because I disabled the card. But why does the spectral scan show -6 power levels when the other spectrum analyzer shows my other aps on the tower and nothing else?

Anyone have any idea? I cant track interference if I can see my own radio card that I am listening on.

this is surely weird. if you are running a spectral scan i wouldnt think it could transmit, i dont think it can do both physically at the same time. Did you send support an email?

Yes the customers stay online as I am doing a spectral scan. Its neat, however I would like the card not to transmit at all so I get a true reading. Thanks for posting.

Mikrotik? What are your thoughts?
