Speaking of real hardware, your Vector Impedance Analyzer kit at under $100
is the best deal I know of for anything of the sort.? ($10+4 for a bare board!)
Good to 150mhz, shows complex impedance with sign, plots smith charts, shows swr.
Great as an antenna analyzer, or just checking out a cap or coil across frequency.
Can be used as a two port Vector Network Analyzer.
? ??? ? ? ?(three kits up from the bottom)
A quick suggestion.? Perhaps someday when sales peter out,
sell the board with source or binary blob so we could use it with other ARM processors.
Good enough to just have the code return the complex impedance at each frequency step.
Could have something like a teensy instead of the Raduino on the uBitx, then have the option of?
including your VIA board, adapt it for use with whatever user interface and display we happen to have.
