I'm gonna play Devil's Advocate here and suggest that all supposed virii
are manufactured by the antivirii companies to induce the fear of a viral
attack on your computer in order to sell you their ready-made solution for
the virii in question. This includes Microsoft products, as well. Time to
use a little common sense here, folks. I am slowly making the transition
to Linux OS's. Currently using Linux Mint Cinnamon, Debian 12.9.0 with the
Mate Desktop and Kali Linux. No viruses detected by Clam AV.

For me, MacAfee *is* the invasive virus. I must take careful steps to
ignore and remove their notices!
I will only use Win10. Win11 has suggested I buy new software when what I
have ain't broke.
Will use Linux exclusively if /when Win10 no longer runs.

My apologies for being so dense but I cannot seem to unpack the advice
given here. I am running Linux Mint 21.0 something and have been able to
install other packages handily, but cannot get my head around what it takes
to install NanoVNA-saver per the instructions here.

Per your instructions..

<11:44|~> Suso apt-cache search nanovna
Suso: command not found
<11:44|~>sudo apt-cache search nanovna
[sudo] password for whp:
<11:45|~> {{{{nothing occurred after password negotiated}}}}

..howeverr, none of this worked out so, in looking for alternatives, I
found this, and was able to bring saver up.

panda@vika:~$ history
1 sudo apt update
2 sudo apt install python3-pip
3 pip3 install

4 echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/home/panda/.local/bin' >> ~/.bashrc
5 source ~/.bashrc
6 NanoVNASaver


Now my question is how does one connect to the NanoVNA like one would do
searching out the Com port on Windows?

Disregard all of above. Found this..

panda@vika:~$ history
1 sudo apt update
2 sudo apt install python3-pip
3 pip3 install
4 echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/home/panda/.local/bin' >> ~/.bashrc
5 source ~/.bashrc
6 NanoVNASaver

Change "panda" to your home -- such as .home/panda/ for me became /home/whp/

The rest works and, once installed, entering "NanaoVNASaver" does the trick. It comes up with "/dev/ttyACM1 (H4)" in port (in my case).

Much simpler.

Something in the newer versions of Saver is falsely triggering McAfee virus signatures. I tell the quarantine to restore the file, then put it on the list to ignore while scanning.
Some other virus scanners also have problems with it, but some do not.
Stan

Even without MacAfee, my laptop running Windows 11 will always say that any
Ham software I try to install is untrustworthy. I thought it may be because
ham software authors are unable to get the software certified due to low
potential usage compared to other general use software. Same problem occurs
when I try to visit the older and quite popular ham websites as well. All
are blocked by my antivirus, mostly because they are http rather than
https.

I just installed it in Kubuntu 24.04 from the repository via Synaptic package monitor with no errors. It executes and comes with the expected screen but I would have to go to the room with the physical machine to test operation and it's past my bedtime...

Yes, it runs under Linux (e.g. on a Raspberry Pi, or for that matter, on MacOS)
You can download the source from the git repo, or I think there’s a package you can apt-get

Rain gutter: i sometimes use my (horizontal) rain gutter, with its two
vertical downspouts, as an antenna, at low power such as for WSPR. I feed
it with a 9:1 balun (for 20 meters) and with a 1:1 balun (with an added L-C
match) for 40 meters. Inside the apartment is a 10-meter-long radial on the
floor.

It's not my best antenna of course but it works somewhat, especially on
20-meter WSPR.

I used the nanoVNA to check it out. Also SimNEC. ... On 14 MHz and higher
(HF) with the 9:1 it is fine. I use only about 5 watts into it, because the
feedpoint is not bolted to the metal gutter. The wire is wrapped around a
lag bolt which i screw into the tight space between the gutter and the
wooden eaves. Every so often i turn the lag bolt and squirt some oil into
the joint.

I would say it's not much better or worse than my indoor mag loops at 5
watts.
