Sorry but that's not the case man. Don't get me wrong it's useful. But my

ability to understand it' is not the issue. My issues with it are the

lack

of morals by the people that sold it. I have a certain disgust with the

whole idea of it because the bad luck I've had buying them. And the lack

of

support from the crooked sellers. If I have to worry that bad about

whether

I'm gonna get a functional unit or not... "so far two out of two were

junk"

I managed to repair one of them and I use it for building transistor

circuits. So again I know how to use it. But to say it does more that's

not

true. It doesn't do the fault finding in coax the same. That alone is a

feature I'd gladly pay for. And I just prefer the ruggedness of the mfj.

I'm sure with time I'll revisit it. And I'm gonna ask folks on here about

where the right place to buy it is as in who are the reputable sellers. I

think I may have just been getting out some frstration with the

situation.

I guess I bought the mfj because I KNOW it will work and it will come

with

the correct parts. The situation with the nano vna actually caused me

problems with not getting a larger amplifier out on time. And the mfj

makes

it so easy to tune output coils. It generates all the info I need to do

my

job where as the nano vna is all kinds of little screen and if you have

sausage fingers you gotta use the little stylus thjng. Or hook it to the

computer. I figure for that part the mfj is worth what I spent on it. All

frustration aside I will be looking around a little before I buy another

nano vna. Matter of fact.... What's the larger better ones if anyone

doesn't mind... I actually would grab one but I'd like to know where I

should purchase it from so I have better experience with it this time.

Like

do you guys get em on ebay or is there some other outlet to buy them

from?

Sorry you had that experience. Likely, you did not take the time to

learn

how to use the NANOVNA!! It is a *FAR* more capable instrument than

anything MFJ offers at 4X the price, but it is not just an antenna

analyzer

which the MFJ product is. The NANOVNA's are not great just for the

price,

but for what they offer the user - IF, and only IF the user is willing

to

learn how to use the instrument. It's no toy!!!!!!!

I own a Mano vna and I threw it in the toolbox and just paid the 360

bucks

for the mfj with the wall wart without hesitation. Nano vna is

junk. I

have had nothing but problems. I've boughten two now and they were

both

junk. The first one the person I bought it from got mad that I had

put

the

wrong address and sent me a returned item that was broken. I gave up

claiming the replacement because the seller was obviously a pos that

hates

life. And tokk their own hatred out on me. When I was just another

paying

customer. I needed it then and there and instead of just sending me a

good

one they told me to send it back and they would replace it. All set.

Next

one had issues too from an entire different seller. Goes to show the

quality you can expect from a stupid 50 dollar pc of test equipment.

Nope

I'll stick with the pros. And the fact is.... The Nano vna is used

for

different things. It's good for circuit analysis. Like for my

amplifiers

and testing my transformers impedance. But as far as big boy Jobs and

measuring inductance on my coils n such and my antenna tuning I'll

stick

with the mfj. People only speak highly of the Nano vna because it's a

cheap

way out to KIND OF do the job. And I've seen soooooo many bad

reviews

of

bad experiences with buying the nano vna. It's hit or miss. You MIGHT

get a

fully functional unit. But your odds of getting screwed with a junk

one....

Are JUST as good. I'll spend the money and get what the PROS use.

Forget

the nano vna

Just a cheap Chinese knock off type TOY

I just watched VE3OSO's comparison video and had a chuckled at the

lol.

I've been thinking for a while just how peed off MFJ must be now

that

we

have these extremely useful little VNA's, especially with how much

they

cost. MFJ's sales must have taken a hit I should imagine.
