In that case, you will eventually want to use the NanoVNA on other antennas as well. It will be REALLY worthwhile to get a few connector adapters. I have gotten sets of UHF/PL259 and of BNC adapters to SMA. They often are sold in pairs or sets of 4, with combinations of the 4 possible gender setups. Male to male, male to female, and so on. You may get one you don't need, but it's cheaper to get the sets. And later on, you will wish you had another one! Even if it is to help a friend with his project instead of your own. Amazon has many sellers of various sets and assortments, and of course there are usually reviews to help decide if their quality is good enough. And of course there are many more sources on ebay and aliexpress - which might be easier or better for some people outside of the USA or where Amazon might not ship to.
Amazon has enough money, they don't need any more.
I got a pair of SO239 and BNC adapters from R&L when I ordered my H4, and figure that should cover my needs nicely. I've seen others post links to these particular parts recently in here. $3.95 each.
