Could it be a configuration setting?
FWIW these are the settings I used in myVNA (unfortunately it keeps license-locking-up on me, it always thinks my laptop hardware has changed, so I'm struggling to use that. Maybe photos of the board and setup are needed, to see if anything can be visually spotted. Coax Connections ??????VNA??? RF-IV Sensor ??????RF OUT????? RF IN ??????PORT 1??? OUT ??????PORT 22????

I have to keep working with it I guess. And I need to find the darn top for the unit. |
