Re: NanoVNA-H: bettering the post-mixer IF filter?
So you'd make a Rseries L series, C shunt, low pass configuration? I think that won't have the effect you expect. Don't forget that those inductors have a fair amount of resistance, too. In any case,

Re: O S L on antenna side of a balun / choke with stud terminals?
Jim, Then Miro's question remains: What happens to power reflected back from the antenna feedpoint if there is no antenna tuner? Without a tuner, it is not all getting sent back out to the antenna.

Re: O S L on antenna side of a balun / choke with stud terminals?
Only if the transmitter has some sort of isolator (in a logical sense) to push the reflected power to a load, and that's pretty rare in a HF transmitter. What really happens is that the transmitter is

Re: O S L on antenna side of a balun / choke with stud terminals?
Not necessarily - for small mismatches, the tuner, even at the end of a transmission line with 10% loss (1/2 dB) makes it so you don't have to go out and keep readjusting an antenna that's narrow

NanoVNA-H: bettering the post-mixer IF filter?
Hello! Would you recommend an LC-circuit as an IF filter? I'm looking into using one of [url=https://static.chipdip.ru/lib/261/DOC005261729.pdf]these[/url] SMD inductors (~hundreds of ¦ÌH) as a coil.

@Dr. David Kirkby: Just like Dragan Milivojevic, I am also curious to hear what the flaws are in Larry Benko's videos. I actually find his videos very interesting and helpful. But I also understand

Re: O S L on antenna side of a balun / choke with stud terminals?
Antenna tuners cause any energy reflected from the antenna to turn around and head back out to the antenna again. So if the antenna is reflecting 1/4 of the energy back to the antenna tuner, after 2.5

Re: O S L on antenna side of a balun / choke with stud terminals?
So, based on what Dave and Jerry are pointing out, I have two VALID conclusions 1) Antenna tuners suck! They make t-line/antenna go gently on TX, but they hide what's behind them. Strive to have (at

Re: O S L on antenna side of a balun / choke with stud terminals?
If you have at least a half wavelength of open wire ladder line, then the VSWR is equal to the maximum RF voltage you can measure across the ladder line divided the minimum RF voltage you can measure.
By Jerry Gaffke · #16753 ·
Re: O S L on antenna side of a balun / choke with stud terminals?
To properly assess the SWR along any transmission line, one must measure BOTH current AND voltage at the same position along the line!! A voltage-only or a current-only measurement will indicate

Re: O S L on antenna side of a balun / choke with stud terminals?
It does get confusing when neither end is properly terminated to the characteristic impedance of the transmission line. You have reflections from both ends, and reflections of those reflection, until

Re: Source for H4 Padded Storage Case?
Also you might want to check Harbor Freight. They have some really nice Pelican case clones and a small one that works quite well to hold the VNA and accessories. They are quite rugged for field work
