Impedance measurements, using a central wire to simulate the electron beam, were performed on a 52 MHz accelerating cavity a? the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS). To damp higher-order modes (HOM) in this cavity, damping antennas have been installed. We implemented the impedance measurement technique to characterize the cavity modes up to 1 GHz and confirm the effectiveness of the damping antennas. Scattering parameters were measured using a network analyzer (HP 8510B) and values for R
