Re: NanoVNA-Saver 0.2.0
Hi Herb Just for the fun of it I measured a blue junkbox core as in my closed chamber as seen on the picture. It can be calibrated on the inside with a SMA male ideal kit and therefore suited for the

Hi Herb Great, I am pleased to hear the progress. Actually if you male as sweep of the test fixture without the clamp and in the NanoVNA-saver display r+jx then you have a graph for the rod impedance

Re: SWR...Nano versus Transmitting
Howdy Ron, Properly calibrated, the nano should give you much better accuracy than even a very good SWR meter, because a VNA calibrates at many points (101 for the nano) across a frequency span,

Roger! What band are you doing your testing on? Also, is your xmtr running on AC power or battery? Tom AE5I

Re: Increasing measurement range (ohms) ?
you can use impedance transformer. Transformer impedance ratio is a square of turns ratio (or voltage ratio). For example, RF transformer with 1:2 turns ratio will works as 1:4 impedance ratio.

Re: R?sp.: Re: R?sp.: Re: [nanovna-users] Duplexfilter tuning question
If you are intending on tuning a 6-cavity BPBR set of 'cans' for 6, 2, or 70-cm using the NANOVNA and intending to obtain what is typical isolation with a 6-can duplexer, the NANOVNA does not have

Re: Increasing measurement range (ohms) ?
Without fully working thru the math, I >>guess<< that back-calculating shunt would lack better accuracy (S/N) than straight measurement. A green (not blue) ~US$10 reflection bridge e.g. from eBay

Re: SWR...Nano versus Transmitting
Thanks for the reminder and suggestions. Yes, I have calibrated using my cables to connect with my antenna. This users group is great!

Re: TDR Option
Dick, I forgot to add that currently all firmware releases for the NanoVNA-F are single sourced by BH5HNU. One of the advantages of the smaller NanoVNA is it has a number of creative firmware

Re: TDR Option
Dick, The Nano-F has different firmware that is not compatible with the smaller NanoVNA. You can still perform TDR measurements from the PC side using NanoVNA-Saver or NanoVNA-Sharp. You can also make

TDR Option
I have a NanoVNA-F (Firmware Ver. 0.0.3). I also have a Users Guide that talks about the TDR function. I cannot find that function on this NanoVNA. Was the TDR function a Firmware Update ? Thanks for

An electronic switch that has to be pressed for a second or two to turn the device on or off would be even better in order to prevent accidental issues.? On Sat, 16 Nov 2019 at 10:13 AM, Harold
