August firmware release notes in Files section
I translated and placed a copy of hugen's August 2nd firmware release notes in the Files section. The latest '20190802' releases are here:

Re: Defective NanoVna
For every upgrade you need to calibrate it. Before any calibration, you need to reset the calibration data. Once saving the calibration to position 0 (zero) it will always load that calibration data.

Re: Defective NanoVna
Got it. Thanks. The 800 MHz ch now shows going to 800 MHz. It has another issue though. Spikes are all over and go all the way to the top of the screen when no load is attached. Looks OK with 50 Ohm

Re: Some basic load measurements
That is expected Peter. Have you got the imaginary parts or phases? Best to plot on a Smith chart too and see how your samples rotate from low to high frequency.? 1.02 swr corresponds to about 40dB

Re: Defective NanoVna
Hi Jim I think we're all struggling to identify and track the different versions of the firmware. I suspect they're all ones written by Hugen who wrote them for the version he sells at

Re: Some basic load measurements
Very interesting results Peter. It prompted me to check out the various dummy loads I have with my multimeter. The decent ones with N type connectors came out at 50 ohms +/- 0.2 ohms, which might

Re: Defective NanoVna
Hi SPACE OPQA, Thanks for the info. Where is the August Version? Thanks, Jim K.

Re: Defective NanoVna
Hi Mike, Thanks very much for that information. The 800 MHz aa version of the firmware corrected the problem. The 800 MHz ch version did not. In fact the 880 MHz ch version still goes out to 900 MHz.

Some basic load measurements
Resending from website as it didn't seem to go through as a message. Also my pasted table from Excel lost formatting so I tried to fix it to be more readable. I just did some very simple resistance

Re: NanoVNA Under The Covers
I just did some very simple resistance and SWR measurements using a HP 8753ES and 85046A. I did a very basic one port 3 point cal using a Anritsu OSL which is specified to over 3 GHz. I took

Re: A few entry level questions
Bob, In case you need to enter the frequency manually, select stimulus as stated, then after you select what you want (start, stop, centre, etc) and the Freq appears across the bottom of the

Re: Defective NanoVna
Hi Jim The 800MHz versions of the firmware are the ones that avoid glitches at 300 and/or 600MHz. The design seems to be based on pushing chips beyind spec and using harmonics of the oscillator signal

Re: A few entry level questions
The screen is touch sensitive. Tap it to bring up the home display menu. Select ¡°stimulus¡±. That¡¯s where you enter the frequencies and other information. You can also push down on the jog wheel

Re: Defective NanoVna
OK, so please try the 800Mhz version. Its used for high temp. Will also eliminate some harmonics. Hope it helps... There is a August version already. Cheers!

Re: Defective NanoVna
Yes, I did reload firmware with nanoVNA_900ch_20190722.dfu Forgot to mention that earlier. The above firmware did help on one I got earlier with a lot lower spike but did not help much on this one.

Re: A few entry level questions
Certainly reasonable questions. I would add entering frequencies and other entries. I am new to the NanoVNA but not network analysis. Stuart K6YAZ

Re: Defective NanoVna
Hello, Have you tried to upgrade (firmware) your unit? That issue was already addressed. Cheers! LL

Defective NanoVna
I just received a NanoVna from Amazon (AURSINC). It is a black one with the shields. The receive side shows a signal at 300 MHz with input connected to dummy load. The signal is so strong that it

Re: Another case DESIGN
The stl files can be downloaded from Thingverse. There are now 2 designs: https://www.thingiverse.com/search?q=nanovna&dwh=645d49dcb550771 Cheers, Larry
