You can connect the nanoVNA to the mac using the latest version of SimSmith. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lFvQg9GKR4&list=PLUl8S204xIezUOWbThMDWEdkK7h4Ywei7 for an overview Intro toSimSmith is

Syd, Yes you should calibrate at the end of the cable, not the VNA connectors. solation iswhen a load is attached to both inputs at the same time o r if you have only one load, just to ch1. Only the

When calibrating the NanoVNA, one plugs in the open, short, & dummy load (O, S, L) directly into the NanoVNA; hence, the calibration plane is at the unit itself. Since I'm using connector cables to

Blowing dust, snow, or rain, are even more of a charging hazard than the field from a passing thunderstorm.? Continuous charging. It charges until something breaks down, so you get a buzz or

Fooling around with this kit the other day I noticed 2 things. The smith chart, when calibrated from 1M - 900M, gave a not so smooth graph for the various smith charts. How do I fix this resolution

Static will build up on the antenna, not just the coax. Or even the stuff sitting on the bench.? The ESD sensitivity varies substantially among the various small VNAs. Some have resistor bridges/pads

When connecting any length of coax to any sensitive measurement instrument, I ALWAYS first grab the end of the coax and effectively short the end with a finger or hand. If there has been a recent

I saw a video about the dangers of using the nanoVNA by connecting to the antenna coax: static buildup on the coax. So I guess one way around this is to measure right at the antenna. The nano is

Andy - I just updated my Mac configuration to interface with both my NanoVNA/NanoVANH4 and old miniVNA Tiny. Once you've installed Python you can either use "Homebrew" or MacPorts to load the app. I

Hi All, Yes, let us all practice respect and tolerance. We come from many backgrounds and levels, and what is great about this group is that we can all learn from each other, and help each other. Like

Andy, you wrote: ‘ Doesn’t that phrase “1 port device” suggest a single input? ‘ A port has two terminals (signal and reference). If you are attempting to determine the inductance of a

This is a classic question on "wire" antennas (think a whip on an HT - the shield on the coax connector goes nowhere).? "the other wire" is there, it's just not at the connector. It's in the stray

Sure, it works. the "shield" connection is via the PWB.? You *might* see a diffe

Andy, You are doing it right as the outer conductor is connected through the nanoVNA. The way I do it though is to mount two SMA jacks on a piece of single-sided PCB and have two short wires with

Over what frequency and targeted value of inductance are you measuring? If you just want the inductance, it would be appropriate to connect the inductor across the source port, Channel 0, only. One

Here is a quote from P. 14 of the Absolute Beginner’s Guide to NanoVNA found at your site: "When measuring one port devices, such as an antenna or individual components, the VNA transmits a signal

OK, I will ignore the rectum who likes to insult and bluster without adding an iota of value to the conversation. I have attached a single alligator clip to the pin of CH0 and to one end of an

Simple circuit theory taught in HS physics, and even some HS algebra classes, teach this concept!! This is even hands-on demonstrated to grade schoolers in the Fort Collins, Colorado Museum of Science

Andy, please forgive me suggesting that the below is a truly bizarre interpretation. For all practical purposes anything connected to an SMA connector implicitly requires two connections: a) a coaxial
