External Sweeper for Agilent (HP) PNA needed?

[rcsge]

I do RCS-Measurements with a HP8530A Microwave Receiver and a HP 8341B Synthesized Sweeper.
Do I need a external Sweeper for the new Agilent E8361A vector network analyzer?

No, there is an internal source in the PNA series analyzers that is sufficient for most applications. Exceptions might be testing mixers and longer antenna ranges.
