Re: Does anyone know how sensitive the nanovna is to electrostatic discharge?
qrp.ddc Thanks for your reply. I agree it would be very detrimental to the our measurements to put a diode in place that has 10-15 pF of capacitance. I would never recommend that. Apparently you did

Re: Analyzing Noise versus Leakage on CH1
The FFT assumes that you have a perfect fit of the (co)sinus in the sample range. At higher frequencies the 5kHz start to deviate so the samples may no longer fit perfectly in the fft and you may get

Re: Further Comments on Resistive Bridges
Ok, looked at the source code and it seems that 2mA is used in fundamental mode and 8mA for harmonic (above 300MHz). This should make a big difference in Si5351 output impedance, isn't it? The
