Purchase of V2 from R & L Electronics
I am totally new to Nano VNA and earning. Was planning to purchase a
NanoVNASAA2N from R & L Electronics. Then I discovered that Tindie seems to be the "official" source of the V2's etc. Would appreciate hearing from others here about R & L vs Tindie. Will I be making a mistake to buy from R & L rather than Tindie? The price difference of about $100 would be a small saving if I can expect to have problems with the R & L clone. Comments on thus most welcome. Also posted this on the V2 group but no activity there since May so not sure how alive that group is. Thanks in advance! |

Many thanks David. Your link does take me to a V2 group with posting this
month although not on the subject I seek. Some group identity confusion. I was already subscribed to a V2 group (groups.io) but it indicates nothing posted since May there. Many thanks!

"open" calibration standard it has worked fine.I have heard that you don't really need that calibration standard but they are sending me one. On Tue, Jun 21, 2022, 3:09 AM John Reves WD8JLV <jrev@...> wrote:

I have been entirely satisfied with the two SAA-2N units I bought from R & L. --John Gord On Tue, Jun 21, 2022 at 01:09 AM, John Reves WD8JLV wrote:

FWIW, I purchased 2 units (tinySA and VNA-65) both from R&L and I am a happy camper. (i.e. no problems, your mileage may vary) Mike C On 6/21/2022 4:01 AM, John Reves WD8JLV wrote:

CORRECTION: that was a VNA-64 (not 65) sorry.

Many thanks for that advice. I couldn't agree more. That's why I wanted to

make the purchase through R & L and not someone offshore. R & L have proven themselves to be rock solid reputable people over the years. Even if they are selling outdated clones and not the latest and greatest model, they have a lot of very happy customers. Technology like the VNAs evolves very rapidly. I usually have better experience buying technology a generation or two behind. The newest stuff often has bugs just like the older stuff did.
