UHF receiver with IF monitor point

Does anyone know of a UHF (400 MHz-ish) receiver that has an external IF monitor connector? Something that can be plugged into a spectrum analyzer or ADC. I guess what I'm looking for is access to the IF (10.7 MHz or 455 kHz) without having to take a radio apart.

Thanks, Thomas

Any UHF tuner from an old TV or VCR should do it, IF is about 38 MHz, 4..7 MHz wide. If you use an older unit with just external voltage control (+1..30V) you can easily sweep it through the band.

I used to have an Eddystone LF reciever went from below AM band down to about 10 Khz or so. Nice unit.

The Eddystone 770U.

Thanks Adrian,

I was looking for something a little more modern, cost effective, rugged, smaller with less current consumption and weighing considerably less than 52 pounds. Other than that, it would be perfect:)

Those requirements weren't in your original spec... :-)

Icom R-100 (small) and Icom IC-7100 (expensive). Have used both to "front end" custom analyzer Doppler and analyzer projects.
