Re: Add FAQ document to the Wiki or Files section
#faq
Anyone member can add a new Wiki page and/or edit existing ones,
so that is probably the easiest way to implement a document modifiable by others. So far as I know, Groups.io has no specific FAQ mechanism. |
Firmware compatibility
I see that both eddy555 and hugen have recently released new versions of their respective firmware.
My nanovna is the -H model, 2.8", HW version 3.3 Can I indifferently load one or the other of those firmware, or just a specific one ? Currently I have the 0.5.4 by hugen, compiled on December 9, Second question : before I played with it, my nanovna at power on did show a splash screen with some version info. After some time, and a lot of recalibrations, at power on it goes directly to the graph screen, no splash screen anymore. Is it caused by some mine wrong actions, or should I be worried ?

Judging by a number of recent posts, a lot of folk are now having problems installing nanovna-saver on Debian based linux.
I've identified the problem, and have written some notes on how to fix it. I'd like to share this with the group. Please could you gentlemen advise as to how best to do that. pdf in Files section, wiki, or even FAQ? 73 Nick |

I tried just running the program as suggested in post #9840. Tried everything so far that been suggested. I do have it running in windows 7, but I just despise windows.
This is what I am seeing at this point. jim@jim-NV53:~/nanovna-saver$ python3.7 nanovna-saver.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "nanovna-saver.py", line 17, in <module> from NanoVNASaver.__main__ import main File "/home/jim/nanovna-saver/NanoVNASaver/__main__.py", line 21, in <module> from PyQt5 import QtWidgets, QtCore ImportError: cannot import name 'QtWidgets' from 'PyQt5' (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyQt5/__init__.py) Error in sys.excepthook: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport_python_hook.py", line 63, in apport_excepthook from apport.fileutils import likely_packaged, get_recent_crashes File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/__init__.py", line 5, in <module> from apport.report import Report File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py", line 30, in <module> import apport.fileutils File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/fileutils.py", line 23, in <module> from apport.packaging_impl import impl as packaging File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/packaging_impl.py", line 24, in <module> import apt File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/__init__.py", line 23, in <module> import apt_pkg ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'apt_pkg' Original exception was: Traceback (most recent call last): File "nanovna-saver.py", line 17, in <module> from NanoVNASaver.__main__ import main File "/home/jim/nanovna-saver/NanoVNASaver/__main__.py", line 21, in <module> from PyQt5 import QtWidgets, QtCore ImportError: cannot import name 'QtWidgets' from 'PyQt5' (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyQt5/__init__.py) |
nanovna-saver cal panel won't fit gnome screen
Hi-
I've spent three interesting days updating my EeePC notebook PC's Debian Linux OS so I could install the nanovna-saver software. Finally got there and all was good until I decided to load a calibration file and/or create a new one. I've found that the calibration panel doesn't fit the screen. The bottom third or so is not visible, so I don't have access to the buttons for loading and saving calibration data. I hoped that I could drag the panel upward, but I cannot - I can move it down only, or stretch it horizontally, which is no help. I did a few generic Debian/gnome searches on the issue and it seems to be not uncommon, but the solutions offered don't seem to help in my case. Anyone got a suggestion for this? If there's no resolution, perhaps the author would consider changing the layout of the panel to accommodate screens with limited vertical space(?) Thanks, Nick, WA5BDU |
Re: Firmware Won't Update
Hi Dennis,
I think the solution is written here: /g/nanovna-users/topic/51160730 if not, use and read the wiki description it seems to me that for the first time the lack of a driver between the computer and nano is the source of the problem. 73, Gyula HA3HZ |
Firmware Won't Update
Hi All, had my VNA-H for a short while and decided it was time to update it, mine is board V3.3, firmware 0.2.3.2, using DFUse, I put my unit into DFU mode and uploaded the latest upgrade. As i have the DFU option in my config, i assume i did not need to short the 2 pins together, that said, the software showed success at every stage, but my device is still stuck on its original firmware, help please.

Bob,

have you tried running the software, rather than the install procedure? The install pulls in the dependencies - if you already have them installed, you can just run the program instead.

Re: Re : NanoVNA-Saver Linux update procedure
Currently I have owner read and write permission on both /.cache and /.cache/pip but only group read and write permission on /.cache/pip.
Anyway I have NanoVNA-saver running through Nick's requirements.txt hack so will leave alone den@den-ThinkPad-T520 ~ $ ls -dl /home/den/.cache drwx------ 36 den den 4096 Dec 9 19:08 /home/den/.cache den@den-ThinkPad-T520 ~ $ ls -dl /home/den/.cache/pip drwxrwx--- 5 den den 4096 Jan 15 22:23 /home/den/.cache/pip Thanks for the suggestion |
Re: Run a Airspy HF+ from a Samsung 10" tablet?
I have the above tablet and wonder if anyone has been able to run their
HF+ from one? If so, what did it take to enable it? Ray, W4BYG ===================================== Ray, I expect you meant to post to: /g/airspy. I don't see why it shouldn't work from /any/ Windows tablet as there are no extra drivers required. 73, David GM8ARV -- SatSignal Software - Quality software for you Web: Email: david-taylor@...
