Hello,

I purchased your case design to encorage you for the future :)

I also designed an addon if you want to use your unit just as an antenna/cable analyzer, while still using your cover. Or remove when not needed.

Next step is to print the nano H4 case in TPE, now I have it in PETG.

Rugged design... hihi

You can say "over", you can say "out", you just can't say "over and out".

@GEO BADGER, check post 1 of this topic.

How are you doing?

I have purchased the H4 case from the OP to encorage and thank him for his
work, however its not hard to do.

I have designed the "yellow" attachment to hold the nanoVNA-H4 with its
case. If i detach it (to use the SMA connectors) , it still inside the
case, thus the 2 parts.

The connectors are 2 x so239 to SMA female adapters followed by 2 x sma
male to male adapters.

Don't forget to calibrate your VNA with all these adapters already fit, for
correct readings...

Hello! I made a case for my nanoVNA, but after seeing your case with the
end that supports the fixed connectors, I decided that would be what I
would like for my VNA. My enclosure is less than 4 inches (10.16
centimeters) wide. Could you tell me how I can replicate the entire case
that you have, and I'm especially interested in the SMA to SO-239
connection. Is the connection hard metal or cable, or what?
I sure want to duplicate the case and connectors like you have shown.
Thanks,

Dan - look in the mods section (in Files) of the forum and look at the ideas in there for strain reliefs for the connectors.
browse the photos section as well.

Thank you.? The posts in the mods area are informative, tho I do not understand the need for the pcb board? OR any bonding of the ground from the two connectors.? I could probably make such a case of something that would absorb impact.? ? I will keep researching.?
