Re: edy555 design notes on CALIBRATION sets
What is the Z range of the NanoVna? I characterized a 500 ohm pot with another Z instrument with the pot set to 500 ohms. At 10 MHz the pot looked something like a resistance 480 ohms with about 80

Re: Installed recent firmware - was this a big mistake?
Hello Rune- First, thanks for the very useful NanoVNA-Saver application! Earlier in this thread you mentioned setting the data rate at 115200 bps. This is 2nd hand information- somewhat anecdotal- but

Re: NanoVNA-Saver 0.1.0
Herb, You nailed it!? I did the reset and calibration and now the unit works! I am not so delighted with what I see, as it isn't that close to my static measurements.? However, the unit now behaves

Re: How does VNA get the phase angle of S11
Thanks for asking the question. I am familiar with them methods of old. Like sala nimi outlined. The R ch and the A and B ch's are down converted to a low IF and these are applied to the inputs of

Hi Bob, You will find everything in the forum Wiki and Files. Calibration is probably required, please read the latest manual on how to do it. There you can get answers to many possible questions. I'm

Re: How does VNA get the phase angle of S11
I haven't looked in detail at the nanoVNA method, but normally you would mix down to a low frequency and do IQ sampling. This is a complex number that can easily be converted into a magnitude and

How does VNA get the phase angle of S11
I understand how a (Wheatstone) bridge gets a voltage or magnitude relative to reactance difference. But how does it get the phase of the that vector. I think there are some hard ways of getting that

Re: NanoVNA-Saver 0.1.0
Bob, One other thing to try before you start looking at the hardware. The first NanoVNA I bought came pre-calibrated and was ready to go out of the box. A second cheaper NanoVNA that I bought came

Re: Which Firmware Version?
Any time you push new F/W to the device it is good practice to re-cal the touchscreen. Now, with that said, I just updated one of my units and found the touch surface was still calibrated. So - if you

Hmm. Can newly installed firmware detect that it has never been touch screen calibrated and automatically start in TOUCH CAL the first time?

Hi Mike- Exactly, IMO "calibration" should reflect actual measurement configuration More specifically, SHORT was by clamping alligators together and OPEN was by unclamping them. I want nanoVNA "CAL"
