Re: cut/lengthen vertical antenna wire
Generally, look for where the most pronounced ¡®dip¡¯ is relative to the frequency you¡¯re tuning for. It should be close to what you¡¯re looking for. If the lowest SWR is at a lower frequency

Re: Common ground and 2-port measuring
You'll not be rewinding that transformer. The assembly is 6 mm (1/4") on a side, and it is "not user serviceable", in that the winding is probably bonded to the core, the core is bonded into the tiny

Re: Read polar impedance (Ohms and phase) directly?
I added a python program to my toolbox that retrieves the S-parameter from NanoVNA-H and stores them either as S-parameter or Z-parameter in touchstone RI (real/imag) format. It would be easy to

cut/lengthen vertical antenna wire
Using formula 234/freq for a 1/4 wave vertical with 4 radials I was building gave me a wire length of 16 feet 6 and 1/8 inches. Nano vna gave swr of 2.3 (too high for my qrp station) so tried to find

The NanoVNA doesn't have very good visibility into its internal state, i.e. the sweep range and other parameters. The software can send a sweep command to get the current sweep setup sweep ¨C sets

Re: Common ground and 2-port measuring
If you have to rewind a transformer then you could just buy a core and completely build it... Why not just buy a different one that directly fits your needs?!? 73 sigi dg9bfc Am 25.07.2022 12:01

nanovna-saver question
#nanovna-saver
Using nvna-s 0.3.9. Why does nvna-s default to a sweep range of 1M to 100M when I connect to the device? I have set the cal range to 100k to 50.1M on the device itself. Where is the nvna-s default

Re: Read polar impedance (Ohms and phase) directly?
Hi Francois, It seems you want in EXCEL to separate out the real and imaginary parts of a COMPLEX number. You could use the functions IMREAL and IMAGINARY to do this. and then make use of the other

Hi Francois, Your development to conclusion appears correct. To be sure use some test values to check it. You might find an alternative approach less mathematically demanding: Addition and subtraction

Re: Read polar impedance (Ohms and phase) directly?
Hello ** I agree gamma=S11 ** In effect If we use Z = Zo * (1+gamma) / (1-gamma) that means: Zo + Zo.gamma = Z - Z.gamma gamma.(Zo+Z) = Z - Zo gamma = (Z-Zo)/(Z+Zo) But the question was how to
