Re: SWR with a NanoVNA
I have to agree - I have been pulling out my hair trying to tune a 70cm QFH (Dual 1/2 turn helix) antenna. The results I get is very sensitive to length, so much so that I gave up in the end. I have

Not if any portion of the code is open source. If the code was entirely rewritten from scratch (doesn't seem likely), then it's OK.

Re: Bad NanoVNA-F Clones showing up

Yes, I agree. Because it is an OSS project, we have not restricted BH5HNU to continue to sell NanoVNA-F. But do you think NanoVNA-F is still an OSS project? Developers can release binary files without

Re: How much calibration is enough?
#calibration
Here is a second report on the effect of calibrating the NanoVNA on SWR and Return Loss measurements. This time a 20M dipole was used as the antenna. It was surprising to me to see how good the

Unless he signed a non compete contract while he was employed by you there is nothing that you can do. OSS project, anyone can sell their own copy/version.

I'd say "Welcome to the world of open source. That's how it's supposed to work." The whole point of open source is that if someone thinks they can do better, they should have the chance to try. That
