Hi Rune,
Understood. I really like Saver and very much appreciate what you have achieved so far, especially in such a short space of time, and I'm very grateful for your effort and dedication.
A lot of Owen's frustration is due to problems with other VNA's and antenna analysers that have some serious issues with calculated values that never seem to get fixed, and the negative response he has had from the manufacturers when these have been flagged up, hence his reluctance to engage directly.
I agree that amateur conventions often differ from those used in the professional world, and that perhaps some of Owen's comments are merely a reflection (no pun intended) of that conflict. However is heart is in the right place when trying to point out these issues, even if perhaps his methodology is not to your liking.
The AIM VNA shows both parallel and series values, so maybe it would be useful to include those in addition to conductance & admittance and then it's not necessary to resort to external calculators and spreadsheets ?
Finally - would it be possible to add some user definable SWR marker lines to the Smith and SWR plots ?
Regards,
Martin - G8JNJ
