Roger Need All Messages By This Member #20788 Raoul, If you are interested in more info on measuring crystals with your NanoVNA I suggest the video by W2AEW on this subject. He carefully explains the terms and definitions and compares various testing methods. He has an extensive collection of videos and is well respected for the clarity and technical accuracy of what he presents. Quite a few recent ones deal with NanoVNA subjects. Roger

Not everyone is an engineer nor do they want or need to go into that kind of depth, that amount of math, or that amount of trouble to build test fixtures, etc... The average joe with a handful of unknown crystals probably just wants to know in a simple manner how to quickly and effectively use a nanoVNA and a set of alligator clips to determine the frequency of resonance and then label each crystal. This is the intended target audience of the video originally posted on this thread. The video also takes one step back and simply explains the series and parallel resonant modes of a crystal, which has been well received by many who always wanted to know in a clear and simple way what these two terms mean. -- VE6WGM
