Re: errors of "error" models
22 : AnyVNA From The Common User's Point Of View :
A Practical Application of the Core Uncertainty Strips Hello, Allow us, please, to point out that, first of all, the Practical Uses of the Core Uncertainty Strip(s) CUS(s) resulting from AnyVNA system are limited only by the imagination of it's Common User in Design, Prediction, Explanation, Justification, Evaluation, or whatever else are his needs... Anyway, since our Sole Objective here is the Evaluation of NanoVNA, we begun yesterday our final trials by using that one-port 50-OHM DC ref2007box, for which we got its Core Uncertainty Strip(s) CUS(s) using our VNA system: [20] : Measurements with Core Uncertainty: /g/nanovna-users/message/3273 So, our aim was to put the Initial (R,X) calibrated results of NanoVNA onto (R,X) CUS diagrams. For that purpose, we built [ods] files by using the Calc application of foss LibreOffice 4.1.0.4 and we extracted the following resulting images: A : Initial NanoVNA results vs ref2007box CUSs : 1 : R ~ f : 2 : X ~ f : From these figures we concluded at once that since the most of NanoVNA results were definitely lie outside the CASs, this is due - perhaps - to the unavoidably inserted N-to-SMA converter. After that, and in order to somehow substantially support this - guessed - conclusion, we "manipulated" the NanoVNA results by mathematically transforming them in such a way to put them inside the CUSs, as follows: B : Initial (pink) and Transformed (red) NanoVNA results vs ref2007box CUSs : 3 : R ~ f : 4 : X ~ f : Finally, in order to complete the "dirty manipulation of data" we just "eliminated" the initial NanoVNA results from the diagrams: C : (red) (Transformed) NanoVNA results vs ref2007box CASs: 5: R ~ f : 6: X ~ f : In this way, we could - prematurely - concluded that the NanoVNA is as much reliable as our VNA. But, obviously, more work has to be done in the direction of finding at last the NanoVNA CUSs. Sincerely, gin&pez@arg 22 |

Re: Color tweak
Well, it doesn't work for me....
Tried: 1) Intentionally putting a syntax error into main.c to see that I was building the correct main.c. 2) Shorted the pins to put into DFU mode. 3) Changed all of the trace colors to (255,255,255). 4) Made a change in plot.c, to confirm that the correct firmware was being flashed. The result is the original, default colors. 73, Steve, N2IC |
plastic case
This little ''case'' being made of plastic won't give you any shielding or isolation.
But it sure will help cut down on the buildup of pocket lint getting inside! I just received mine and got it installed without any instructions. It is held on by the screws holding the outer panels in place. Bill |
Color tweak
I have been successfully making some small tweaks to the 0.1.1 firmware. I would like to change the colors of the traces to make them more readable in sunlight. However, that tweak has not been successful. In main.c, I tried changing the trace_color array in config_t config. However, it does not seem to have any effect. What am I missing ?
Thanks, Steve, N2IC |

I can't wait until the Belton TX hamfest next month so I can get rid of my HP8568B spectrum analyzer, HP8444A tracking generator, and various RF bridges that I was only using sporadically. My workbench will feel like its got a new lease on life. Herb |
Re: nanoVNA without the USB-C power on, turns off after approx. 30 sec. ?
Benny,
Some of the lower cost nanoVNA's are delivered without a battery. Check and see if you have one. You may be charging a capacitor when you plug it in, but after disconnecting from USB power the capacitor discharges to the point it can no longer power the nanoVNA. Heerb |
Re: nanoVNA compared (at HF) to Keysight N9913A
John,
As accurate as the Nanovna appears to be, you will see an even tighter correlation if you calibrate both instruments from the same set of calibration loads. The Nanovna has become my go-to bench instrument and the spectrum analyzer/tracking generator/rf bridge rarely even gets powered on these days. Simply an amazing device! WA8TOD |
nanoVNA without the USB-C power on, turns off after approx. 30 sec. ?
I have a nanoVNA with USB-C after charging, I turn it on without the USB-C power on, it turns on fine, but turns off again after approx. 30 sec. - but run with USB power plugged in, does anyone have a good idea, preferably a solution? ;-)
