Thank you Oristo.
I'm not sure how to press pause when the unit is hanging on the antenna up
in the air, that's the reason I think a *scheduled *one scan+pause will do
it.
To clarify my request, let's imagine the following sequence:
1. Prepare the scheduled scan on the NanoVNA (for example set delay 10 min)
2. Connect NanoVNA to the antenna
3. Install the antenna on the working position
4. Wait for the scan+pause to start/finish
5. Bring antenna down and save the data from the NanoVNA via USB
I know there's another solution to this problem: to calibrate NanoVNA with
a piece of cable long enough to reach the antenna in the working position.
However, I think the measurement with NanoVNA connected directly to the
antenna would be more accurate.

Hi Ady
regarding saving the scan and download it later, I think a nice firmware
feature would be to schedule a delayed scan followed by a pause after the
scan.
This is already possible using
This will allow to hang the NanoVNA to the antenna (for example HF
multiband
dipole like FD4, or VHF YAGI) and perform a scan without the feeder.
The delayed start of the scan is necessary to allow enough time to
install the
antenna in the position.
Not sure why delaying start is necessary; scans until pause are discarded.
Only the final scan before pause is available to upload when USB is
reconnected.
