output power
Hello all of you, I am trying to find some authoritative info on the output power of the NanoVNA. In several links I see -13dBm (and sometimes even increasing with frequency:

Re: Two 1/4 wavelength transformers for one antenna and two RX-radios. Help my thinking
Hi Torbj?rn, going back to your coax xable splitter: When you have a signal source at A and two loads connected to B and C, the circuit works fine, because each 75? cable will transform its 50?

Re: Uncertain about coax loss reading
This is when I calibrated and left the cable in through, used the thin coax that comes with it.

Re: Uncertain about coax loss reading
The value for S11 looks "about" right. Yes, S21 is noisy. Run the same test with the coax you used for the through cal, of course, after another complete cal. Dave - W?LEV -- Dave - W?LEV

Re: Uncertain about coax loss reading
Here's with a reset calibration, I don't think S21 should be noisy like that, should it?

Re: Two 1/4 wavelength transformers for one antenna and two RX-radios. Help my thinking
I tested a quality CATV splitter and found it worked quite well for 50 ohm applications. The Return Loss, S21 and Isolation graphs obtained using a NanoVNA are attached. I used F to BNC adapters (from

Uncertain about coax loss reading
Still new to using a VNA. I've calibrated my NanoVNA-H4 and double checked the calibration with the 3 tips once again as per hexandflex' guide, with the isolation and through, since I want to measure

Re: Two 1/4 wavelength transformers for one antenna and two RX-radios. Help my thinking
Regarding power splitters/combiners, check out the Gysel (rhymes with Diesel) combiner; its termination resistors are 50¦¸ and grounded, much easier to deal with than the floating 100¦¸ resistor of

Re: Two 1/4 wavelength transformers for one antenna and two RX-radios. Help my thinking
Thanks Andy and Kent. Using the Wilkinson approach my splitter gives SWR 1.1 at the design frequency, quite broad. The input from Kent gave me the idea to make a splitter using two ferrite-toroidal

Re: Two 1/4 wavelength transformers for one antenna and two RX-radios. Help my thinking
The TV splitters to connect two TV's to the same antenna are very cheap and work just fine at that frequency.? ? They are a simple transformer, they have no impedance of their own.? So splitting 75

Two 1/4 wavelength transformers for one antenna and two RX-radios. Help my thinking
Hello, I intend to use the same antenna for two RX-radios. I will lose 3 dB, but for the sake of the radios RX-input I intended to present each with roughly 50 ohms. The frequency is about 90 MHz (not

I'm not. I'm writing a user manual for the nVNA. I think we could all benefit from tutorials of some sort, but we all have different interests. To me, that means that many people would prepare

The VNA has no way to know the relationship between physical length and electrical length. So you have to enter propagation velocity.? In a tutorial, since it has come up, one might have an
