Group: I have a Nano-F V. 3.1 but have never controlled it from my computer. I'd like to do that, as I need to generate and save an S1P file for some RF transformer work I'm doing.
Can someone please recommend the best public-domain software to use, something that is not buggy or full of spyware? Again, I want to generate and save an S1P file of a sweep.
I use NanoVNA-Saver (which is in Python, and runs on any platform). Others like NanoVNA-App, which is Windows only.
Those two seem to be popular.
If you're looking for something minimalist, there's nanovna.py - it's a command line utility that I use if I just want to command the nanovna from a script.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
time
./nanovna.py --start 50000 --stop 100000000 --points 201 -o testxyz --port 0
time
does a sweep from 50kHz to 100 MHz with 201 points and stores the output in a file called testxyz.s1p.
