Re: NanoVNA port renormalization
Maybe I am interpreting this incorrectly. Your comparison shows with PortZ = 50 and PortZ = 430. The Smith Chart marker shows almost the same input impedance in both cases so it appears you did not

Re: NanoVNA port renormalization
Rather than prioritizing new feature development for the NanoVNA, I would prefer to see some integrity/troubleshooting functions build in. Things like checking for internal shorts, component values

Re: After firmware update my nano-vna-h is behaving bizarrely.
Yep...Just went through this myself. Mine was an MS version and dislord 1.2.40 defaults to SI. Bryan, n0luf

Re: NanoVNA port renormalization
Roger, Here are screenshots of tests with a ceramic filter and a crystal filter at 10.7 MHz (different spans). Each is shown at 50 ohms and again at a higher Z that gives a better match. Also shown is

As a followup on this, I see the chip specific files from Huygen, but not Dislord . . . . fwiw . . . - Tim -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.

Re: NanoVNA port renormalization
Hi This is my point of view : Z--> option does not change the physically pot2 impedance , it remaine always at 50 Ohm +/- 1 ohm value, just firmware by computing way can display S11 or S21 as its at

Re: After firmware update my nano-vna-h is behaving bizarrely.
If your nanovna-H is an MS version (rather than older SI version - see label on back for hardware revision number) - then you need to go into 'expert settings' and change the 'mode' to 'MS5351', then

After firmware update my nano-vna-h is behaving bizarrely.
After calibrating after upgrading to new firmware NanoVNA-H.v1.2.40.dfu from dsilord, the nano vna is showing what seems to be crazy flickering SWR values even after recalibrating and trying to find

At one time there were specific binaries which set that flag (but otherwise identical) Not sure if they still exist or not, since it's so easy to set. - Tim -- Sent from my Android device with K-9

Re: Smith Chart acting up in calibration
Absolutely....thanks Tim. Somehow I missed your post. One thing Ill have to remember now is that a reset will revert it back to SI...even if I save the config. Fred, Yes, the sma connectors are weak

Re: Nanovna-h and Windows 11
I have been using the STM32 Cube Programmer (latest is now 2.19). Thanks so much for the docs and driver so I can now switch back and forth. I'm so used to the STM32 way but it's nice to be able to

Re: NanoVNA port renormalization
Interesting... What was the design impedance of the filter? I am surprised at your results because the loading greatly affects the crystal filter characteristics. The usual way is to use a series

Re: NanoVNA port renormalization
Roger, Most filters are passive and linear. A crystal (or ceramic) filter response is correctly transformed by the renormalization; I have used this feature several times. I agree that an active

Just a crazy thought from someone with very little VNA experience ..... SMA connectors are known to have a quite limited number of insertion cycles. Is it possible you have a connector that is no
