Doubting the accuracy of my NanoVNA H4. Is there a way for a non electronics minded person to verify the accuracy of my H4? I am a beginner with the NanoVNA. I have calibrated the unit per recommendations. After calibration the open, short and load show where they should be.
I have used the helpful recommendations from members in this group. I am trying to analyze a random wire antenna that shows no resonant areas. I have a lot of noise and do not hear a lot of stations. I did make one contact last weekend, my only QSO, from Arlington Texas to Jinks OK on 7.280.00 LSB.
Thoughts, suggestions, solutions?
The antenna is a random wire 9:1, 135¡¯ element, 35¡¯ counterpoise, about 40¡¯ up in the tops of trees with leaves. Line was placed with a drone. I would like to learn to use the NanoVNA in and out for my benefit.
Thanks
Darrell
