Re: SOLT calibration vs. TRL
True, however, I was thinking forward as I understand a 3 channel nano receiver is under development. Further, the technique for obtaining true 2 port s data currently requires unbolting the test

Re: SOLT calibration vs. TRL
TRL calibration requires a VNA with 4 receivers. The HP 8753 series, which have 3 receivers, can perform something HP refer to as TRL*. This requires a good match at the test ports - typically 6 to 10

Re: A simple, and reasonably accurate way of simply entering the properties of WELL ENGINEERED calibration kits.
The best way to do this is to perform a calibration then measure the properties of a very good transmission line shorted at the end. The amplitude should be constant with frequency. Errors will cause

Re: A simple, and reasonably accurate way of simply entering the properties of WELL ENGINEERED calibration kits.
Unfortunately setting the delay after calibration with DISPLAY - SCALE - ELECTRICAL DELAY menu. will not give good results for many connectors - in particular for N connectors. The reason is because

Re: A simple, and reasonably accurate way of simply entering the properties of WELL ENGINEERED calibration kits.
Some of us have commercial cal kits for which C0 (as well as C1-C3) and the delays are specified by the manufacturer. In my opinion, C1-C3 are unnecessary for the NanoVNA's frequency range, but it

SOLT calibration vs. TRL
The group has been focused on SOLT or so called SOLM (match) for calibration. However, for various reasons the TRL; Thru, Reflect, Line calibration algorithm would be advantageous. Fabrication of such

Re: A simple, and reasonably accurate way of simply entering the properties of WELL ENGINEERED calibration kits.
you already can setup delay with DISPLAY - SCALE - ELECTRICAL DELAY menu. If you needs C0 settings, just explain me how to test that it works properly? I will add such settings if it really helps.

Re: Upgrade MCU from STM32F072C8T6 to STM32F303CCT6
NanoVNA already uses STM32F072CB which has 128 kB flash and 16 kB RAM. NanoVNA uses end of 128 kB flash block to store configuration and calibration data. So, if your NanoVNA can store and restore
