If your RPG is the same as my 8660B the output is 2 square wave chains which lead and lag depending on the direction of travel. You can put your dual trace scope on the outputs and watch the wave

Re: S11 and S22 comparisons on 8753
On the 8752/8753/8720 etc., and pretty much all newer VNAs, even what you call "uncalibrated" is actually calibrated at the factory or at the service center when you send the analyzer for calibration.
