Hi Conrad,
nice to meet you here so I guess I'm the 1. and you are the 2. 144MHz EME guy in the group :-) I was lucky to buy 3 pieces of the -F version before he closed the shop but you may have read that his new shop is open soon. Take care Conrad and always good deep decode. 73's Erwin/DK5EW |

"Is BH5HNU Hugen? I thought Hugen was working on nanoVNA-H, and BH5HNU on nanoVNA-F." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave, Yes, Hugen's product is the 2.8" NanoVNA-H, and BH5HNU's is the 4.3" NanoVNA-F. BH5HNU has been so busy with orders and production that he hasn't had a chance to devote a lot of time to documentation and software development. Because the NanoVNA-F and NanoVNA-H have a lot of crossover, not only in how they operate, but in user's who own both models, ssome NanoVNA-F owners join the discussions on this board looking for information. It leads to confusion at times because the NanoVNA-H's firmware is more advanced than the NanoVNA-F. The NanoVNA-F owner then begins to wonder why a feature described in the NanoVNA's operating manual isn't available on his device. Herb |

Isn't there a 3rd path - the "2"? "H" has the best firmware but older hardware & small display, "B" larger display & some hardware updates, but older firmware, "2" about to release newer hardware & firmware but small display. Sure wish they'd combine efforts.

=============================================================== David, Currently we have the following products being sold: 1. 2.8" NanoVNA (Hugen's MOD of edy555's original open source project). All 2.8" devices marketed as" NanoVNA" are also clones of the open source project. 2. 2.8" NanoVNA-H (Hugen added the "-H" suffix to his product to distinguish it from other clones being sold.) His NanoVNA-H product also has a plastic case, has the diode mounted for battery voltage monitoring, has proper USB-C terminators and the firmware has been upgraded to at least ver 0.2.3.2. Cost is still around the US $50.00 range. 3. 4.3" NanoVNA-F (BH5HNU's NanoVNA with a larger screen, different operating system and different firmware.) Version 2 NanoVNA's probably won't appear on the scene until into the New Year. There is not a lot of incentive for cooperation. Each product designer has a small window to re-coop his or her efforts before the cloner's reverse engineer their pcb designs and cut their profits. - Herb |
That's the one, many thanks to all.

Thanks for the clarification!

For some reason the Version 2 devs think that they can only offer a $50. price-point device with a small display. For some reason they don't see that offering a "B" (or some other nomenclature) version - at a higher price - makes good business sense. Indeed - someone could offer one without a display at all - and just provide a micro-HDMI connector (like the Raspberry Pi4). IMHO, YMMV ... David KD4E Isn't there a 3rd path - the "2"?

I'm a member of NanoVNA-F development team, because of BH5HNU's personal problem, the hamelec aliexpress store is no longer selling product now, but we'll reopen a new store soon, it maybe takes 2-3 weeks. You can get newest infor from our own groups: /g/nanovna-f When the new store open we'll release claims at that group at the first time. On Mon, Nov 18, 2019 at 11:52 PM, Conrad, PA5Y wrote:

Hello David.
I have a very specific use for the NanoVNA-F, basically the VNA-H is too small to be useful with my poor eyesight. I have a VNA-H and it compares very favourably with my HP-8712B. The VNA-F will be used for outside antenna work from 50-432MHz, that's all. These things are really great for such a cheap piece of kit! I also have some proper cal kits to check them with ? 73 Conrad PA5Y ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Dr. David Kirkby, Kirkby Microwave Ltd via Groups.Io <drkirkby@...> Sent: 19 November 2019 03:14 To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [nanovna-users] BH5HNU NanoVNA-F Aliexpress site no longer there?

Hello June I have joined the group and I will discuss the situation on that group. I am very keen to buy the right product and support the right people.
