Hi All,
I've been reading the comment about frequency range vs sample size and other issues and I'd like to suggest / discuss some thoughts.
Although it's nice to have the capability to measure up to 900MHz, I suspect that because of the type of use the Nano is likely to be put to, I don't think most users need to be able to measure above 500MHz (actually 470MHz).
This is because it marks the start of the UHF terrestrial TV broadcast band, which continues up to 800MHz + and the next frequency bands of interest are likely to be 1090MHz and above particularly 1.3GHz and 2.4GHz all of which are all above the upper frequency limit of the Nano. The highest frequency amateur band below 500MHz is 433MHz (which is also an ISM band) so having a bit of headroom above this is still useful when building antennas or testing filters.
If the upper limit was set to 500MHz would this be adequate for most users, and allow more data points and facilitate other stuff that is currently not possible when up to 900MHz is available ? Or does it not actually make that much difference if the upper limit is 500 or 900 MHz ?
