Re: NANO VNA H4 , Implausible measurement results?
If you used this BNC to Banana adapter, you are adding about 2 pF or so of shunt capacitance across the feed point of your test dipole. At 500 MHz for example, this is about Xc = 159 ohms. This

Re: Measurement correction for Zc Coax caracteristic Impedance
This chart shows the typical behaviour of a loosy coaxial cable over frequency. Basically there are two models , the low frequency model in this case the dielectric loose are very small then G tends

Re: Measurement correction for Zc Coax caracteristic Impedance
Hi With same coax, same method, same NanoVNA H4 (1.2.40 DiSlord) surprisingly i have some different Zc values for 50Mhz & 100Mhz 50Mhz ---> Zc = 49.0 Ohm 100Mhz ---> Zc = 43.5 Ohm 73's Nizar

Re: Measurement correction for Zc Coax caracteristic Impedance
An interesting chart. Note that below about 300 kHz, the imaginary component of the characteristic impedance can no longer be ignored and, if you are working on any cables at voice frequencies or

Re: Measurement correction for Zc Coax caracteristic Impedance
Hi Jim Lux "L , C & R exhibit some frequency-dependent variation; they do not have a perfectly flat response across frequency. This behavior depends on the dielectric material used, skin effect

Re: Measurement correction for Zc Coax caracteristic Impedance
Not unexpected Zc is sqrt( (R+jomegaL)/(G+jomegaC)) Mostly determined by L/C, but the R is in there too, and it goes up as frequency goes up, because of skin effect. For HF the dielectric loss (G) is

Interesting , the Zo uses to rise a little when the frequency goes down.

Re: Measurement correction for Zc Coax caracteristic Impedance

Re: Measurement correction for Zc Coax caracteristic Impedance
Hi Dave DiSlord coax function seems using Zc = 1/(4*fr*C0) , fr= is the first resonance frequency with open terminaison it's around 1.7Mhz measured by NANoVNA. C0 = capacitance value at lower

Re: Measurement correction for Zc Coax caracteristic Impedance
I wonder how the "short / open" method compares using Zc = SQRT [L / C] ? Of course, that will introduce losses due to theoretical infinite SWR. Dave - W?LEV [email protected]> wrote:

Re: Measurement correction for Zc Coax caracteristic Impedance
Hi I think that this method of small circles centered with the renormalized impedance at the center of the Smith graph, must bring two advantages compared to that used by the DiSlord method: 1) we

Re: NanoVNA H FW 1.0.53 Display Intermittent
I have this problem even with my recently purchased NanoVNA. Sometimes when I switch on, the screen is blank. If I switch off and switch on once again, usually it becomes OK. The problem recurs again

John, Thank you for your advice; I think that is the reason for the fault. I tried that and operated the unit outside of the case and it seemed to work a little better but the menu still flickered
