You mean this one?
The suggestion of the ebay board stimulated discussion which is a good
thing as I suspect some will have a need to see could this test 'whatever'
and if it does what does the output look like?
I would have thought either might be a step up from a veroboard or a bit
of FR4 (or better) with an SMA on either end and some test circuit or mount
in between.
I am sure many of us have created such PCB with bnc/sma etc at either end
you put/mount/wire some test rig or item in between.
Might be a guess but expect lpf/bpf, xta filters, RC/LC networks and a
number of devices have been tested in this manner before (not with the
nanovna of course)
If you have alternative suggestions for ready made cheap test boards I am
sure many would love to hear about them?

Yes. Note that there¡¯s a basic board and are more advanced one. Both are
under ?20. I think that they are designed to be *educational*.
I am not saying that the Chinese board is totally useless, but for a PCB
with connectors that have quite a limited lifetime, and a small number of
cheap components, it seems quite expensive to me.
