We have another exciting new update for Spike that enables multi-channel I/Q analysis for the PCR4200. This feature is available at no additional cost in Signal Hound's Spike software. Delivering phase-coherent time and spectrum analysis across up to four channels simultaneously, this powerful new mode unlocks vast new capabilities for users of the PCR4200. Customers have asked and we are delivering. Multi-channel hardware paired with this new software feature delivers faster setup, precision phase coherence and provides accurate results when it matters most.

Beginning May 5, 2026, multi-channel analysis will be available via a Spike update (version 4.0.13).

Expanding our flagship software offering to include this new highly useful feature opens additional opportunities for promotion of the PCR4200. This powerful, multi-channel receiver is equally capable in test and measurement scenarios as it is in defense situations. Measurement of complex RF behaviors across multiple inputs is now streamlined, simplifying workflow and modernizing previously outdated processes. The update gives users visualization of up to 40 MHz of bandwidth per unified plot for enhanced signal visibility and measurement confidence. The feature list below makes these options within Spike a game-changer for RF professionals working in the multi-channel domain.

Spike Multi-Channel I/Q Analysis Features:

  • Configure up to 4 phase-locked or 4 fully independent channels
  • Effortlessly calibrate out amplitude, phase offset, and phase delay
  • Utilize the PCR4200’s onboard VSG as phase-coherent CW source
  • Enable precise and easy channel-to-channel phase or amplitude delta measurements
  • Access several versatile plot types to suit your analysis needs

We are continually committed to adding new tools and features to our product lines and software offerings. Users of the PCR4200 will now be able to transform their analysis capabilities and level up their research that requires advanced RF test functionality. This update is an exceptional value-add to our customers and we look forward to the additional promotional opportunities this will present for the PCR4200.
