Taking advantage of an advice from One-of-Eleven, I have purchased a
Bluetooth module HC5 that I would like connect to my nanoVNA-H (PCB 3.4)
in order to remotely control it. As you probably remember, I have to
measure antenna input impedance on a mockup of a 3U cubesat and I cannot
have any metallic cable coming out from the satellite mokup.
Does someone know if I can find a proper version of nanoVNA-H firmware
that already allows to interface, via Bluetooth, a nanoVNA to any
software running on PC?
The picture below shows the internals of the NanoVNA-H PCB3.4 which has the serial pinouts which could connect to a serial Bluetooth HC05 module. Unfortunately no one has developed any firmware which they are publicly sharing that supports these serial pins or a serial Bluetooth module.
This Bluetooth capability is available on other analyzers like the one port VNA's from RigExpert so it can be done.
