Re: Measuring "Q"
Hi Joe, The Q you will measure is the operating Q and that probably is the one you want. That is to say, we have the Q on the plate side of the tube and the Q on the antenna side... that is the 50 ohm

Measuring "Q"
I have a NanoVNA-H4, Using it, It it possible to be able to measure the "Q" of a Pi output network of a HF frequency Amplifier? I can measure the match it is making for between the tubes and the

Re: two nanoVNA linked for two port setup
Jim, You are doing some interesting experiments. Explained very well and helped me understand the issues. I look forward to seeing how you progress. Thanks - Roger

Is the phase angle displayed on the nanoVNA a measurement of the phase relationship between voltage and current in the DUT?
It is easy to come to the conclusion that the S11 phase angle as seen on the nanoVNA (CH0 PHASE 90..) is the relationship in a device under test between the voltage and current in that device, and I

I'm still struggling with my faulty nanoVNA SAA-2N :-( In addition to the SAA-2N I have got a nanoVNA-F, a nanoVNA-H4 and a small "very tiny...". The other units are working ok, but I really want to

Re: two nanoVNA linked for two port setup
Sure, I think so. The bare NanoVNA has about 80 dB dynamic range.? If you lose 10-15 dB due to dividers, etc. then you're at 60 dB. It would be interesting to compare the "resistive divider" vs

Re: two nanoVNA linked for two port setup
Hi Jim, Do you think there is adequate dynamic range in this 2 vna system to measure a run of the mill device, like a 2N3904? At HF the s21 might be 20 dB while the s12 is -40 dB. Regards, Alan

Re: two nanoVNA linked for two port setup
Pretty much the cost - An extra NanoVNA is another $50, brand new - There are no $50 transfer switches, except used (maybe), and you need to make d

SWR what did I mess up

Have nanovna -H I think firmware 1070 Saver ver 3.9 When I measure swr on saver for a known antenna it never shows above 1.13 when I know it higher on vna screen looks close to correct what did I mess

Re: two nanoVNA linked for two port setup
OK, so a cost-and-integration-effort vs. isolation tradeoff. Interesting. Thanks. I very rarely want to be able to measure all four parameters, but did have an experience recently where the iterative

Re: two nanoVNA linked for two port setup
Jim, What benefit does this approach offer over using a DPDT/transfer switch? Is this just a cost concern? I note for example that a transfer switch approach would solve concurrent access to multiple

I've run two instances of NanoVNA-Saver and it seems to work ok - here's a picture of two.? I scaled the image down so it's a reasonable size. I find that setting the font to 12 point makes it more
