Lou,
Since all of the technical information surrounding the nano-xxx series of devices and associated applications is created by hobbiests, there has been an effort by the group members, like myself, to help in creating various documentation.
The nanoVNA-APP was created by its author initially as a personal creation to assist in learning about their application. They shared the application with the forum members but its sourcecode remains private.
It was never documented and despite requests to the forum members for someone to create rudimentary docs for it - nothing was done.
So...... you need to play with it and read the various message threads (search for "nanovna-app").
The one item you need to know is only use version x.x.206 as the 207 version is buggy. Also, move the cursor to the graph area and right click to bring up a huge context menu where you can change a pile of parameters.
Finally, make sure you select to use the correct calibration source (device, none or app)
I hope this helps.
BTW - if you feel like it, why not create a doc while you're learning about the app.
Myself and others have already contributed a number of docs to the forum and it's time others started to as well......
regards
Larry

Good suggestions. Also worthwhile are "The Missing Manual" and "NanoVNA V2/ S-A-A-2 User Manual".? I've read those and have used the V2Plus 4 some success as I already know a fair amount about RF and associated instrumentation.? Here, however, my question is specifically on information regarding the nanoVNA-APP software for Windows.? I know something of NanoVNA-QT and nanoVNA Saver but nothing on the nanoVNA-APP for Windows.? That's what I'd like to find out more about.
