Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about RF and microwave calibration at Techmaster Electronics.
What is the highest frequency Techmaster can calibrate?
Our RF and microwave laboratories support calibration up to 50 GHz with ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation across spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers, signal generators, power meters, and frequency counters. Higher-frequency requirements (50–110 GHz) can be handled through our partner network — contact our metrology team for a capability check.
Is RF calibration accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017?
Yes. Techmaster Electronics is accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 by ANAB (Certificate AC-1736) covering RF, microwave, electrical, dimensional, mass, and time/frequency calibration. Every accredited certificate includes the ANAB logo, calibration uncertainties, and full NIST traceability.
What is the standard turnaround time for RF instrument calibration?
Standard turnaround is 5 business days from receipt of the instrument. Expedite calibration (1–2 business days) is available on most RF and microwave models for a nominal fee. Contact your account manager or sales@techmaster.us to schedule expedited service.
Do you offer on-site RF calibration?
Yes. We provide on-site calibration for RF and microwave equipment at customer facilities anywhere in the continental United States. On-site service is most cost-effective for fleets of 10+ instruments. Travel and setup fees apply based on location and equipment volume.
