Re: Common ground and 2-port measuring
Hi Victor, Thank you for your update and information. There are different ways to measure CMC performance as there are different 'lumped' component models of a CMC taking account of parasitic elements

Re: Should I upgrade firmware, and if so which version to use?
Of course you should still upgrade to the latest. You will get bug fixes, performance improvements, and new features. FREE! 73 -Jim NU0C m2walter@... wrote:

Re: Common ground and 2-port measuring
A clasic way to explain this was to connect 2 ports with coax, connect the coax shields on 2 ports with a short piece of wire and try to measure the current in the wire but I like this graphic, it is

Re: Common ground and 2-port measuring
Hi Jerry, You're absolutely right. It's not all or nothing. A semantically better way to say it is: RF current always favors the path of least impedance. The degree of "favor" is divided between paths

Re: Perfect SWR with dummy load, but huge with antenna
The measure of a "good" antenna is how well it performs. When I lived in a house with a lot bigger yard a few years ago I had a 40 meter vertical full-wave loop antenna (~12 feet high and ~58 feet

Re: Should I upgrade firmware, and if so which version to use?
You're correct. I was thinking about it and tried it: the NanoVNA does go to 900 MHZ. And all this time I thought that since the default stop freq that it 'boots up with' is 250 Mhz that it was not

it should go to 900 (3rd harmonic) or 1.5 g (fith overtone) dg9bfc sigi (sorry i can not help with fw cause i am a v2 user that has a clock to over 4g) Am 11.07.2022 um 18:44 schrieb m2walter@...:

Re: Perfect SWR with dummy load, but huge with antenna
Yes, indeed...... The measure of a "good" antenna is not SWR. Of course, a 1:1 in a 50-ohm non-reactive system is essential to keep the transmitter output stage happy, but does not measure how good an

Should I upgrade firmware, and if so which version to use?
I have an original NanoVNA: it only goes up to 250 MHz. Can I upgrade the firmware and obtain additional functionality? If the firmware can be upgraded which version should I load. Tks. Mark Walter

Yes, you are right, but how do you check radiated electromagnetic field ! Tell us how you do 73 -- F1AMM Fran?ois

be careful not to have a dummy load @swr1.1! what is important is the radiated power! so not only check SWR but also radiated electromagnetic field! 73 F6CNG Olivier [email protected]> a ¨¦crit :

Re: Common ground and 2-port measuring
Actually, that's a common, but incorrect statement. Current - RF or otherwise - always flows along ALL available paths, split according to the inverse of the resistance. To make it simple, let's say
