Semi-bad clone?


 

I received my NanoVNA last week, ordered from sqcase, a 'seller' here in
the UK. I think they are a Chinese supplier with stock in the UK but it
meant I got it quickly and it came with a battery. All for GBP 46.99, tax
included.

My NanoVNA looks like the 'bad clone' in Hugen's photo. Key features are
missing 'CH0' labelling on the front panel, no screening on the PCB and a
plastic back panel. The short circuit sma was missing so I made a temporary
one from a shorted PL259 and an SMA adapter.

It seems to produce plausible results when antenna testing despite the
temporary shorted calibration SMA and lack of screening but I plan to
compare it with a more expensive VNA soon.
