About Us
Signal Hound designs and builds powerful, affordable spectrum analyzers and signal generators for engineers and RF professionals around the globe. Whether you’re needing EMC pre-compliance capabilities in a small two-person shop or spectrum monitoring on a national scale, our test equipment is designed with you in mind. Accurate and powerful enough for mission-critical RF analysis, priced at a point accessible to most, and supported by a talented group of engineers committed to what they do – we truly believe that our devices offer unrivaled value in the test equipment industry.
Signal Hound is located in the United States, in Southwest Washington state in the city of Battle Ground, and we sell our devices worldwide via this website, direct sales, and a global network of distributors.
Founded by Bruce Devine as Test Equipment Plus (TEP) in 1996 and selling our own line of Signal Hound test equipment since 2010, we’ve built the foundation of our company on years of test equipment repair, service, hardware and software development, and manufacturing experience.
More than a decade has passed since Justin Crooks placed a napkin drawing comprised of affordable components in front of Bruce and pitched it as a potential USB-powered spectrum analyzer, void of a screen and built-in PC. The potential analyzer was designed to take advantage of modern USB connectivity and utilize an external PC for processing and spectrogram display.
Since 2010 the Signal Hound brand has continued to evolve, resulting in the addition of several RF test products. In fact, in 2017 the Signal Hound brand officially transitioned into Signal Hound Inc.
Meet the Modern Signal Hound
Signal Hound’s latest analyzers are the natural progression of what Signal Hound has always held important – that high-performing and accurate test equipment should provide unrivaled value, accessible by every engineer. With components getting better, smaller, and more powerful every year, the opportunities to create more powerful equipment just keep opening up – for comparatively less money.
Signal Hound is a small company with big goals – and an even bigger commitment to providing our customers with an outstanding experience when purchasing and using our products. In January 2024, Signal Hound announced the expansion of our Battle Ground facility. We have exciting new products on the horizon and look forward to continuing our mission of offering unrivaled value in the test equipment industry.
