Re: can't make a Thru calibration?

One more thing to try. You can do a thru calibration without doing an OSL calibration if all you are interested in is the S21 loss/gain. I often do that if I am checking an attentuator or filter over

Yes, I was doing that too. I also did as Roger suggested and hit RESET several times with no luck.

Re: can't make a Thru calibration?

Hern¨¢n, Ensure that you do a "CAL->RESET" before you do the OPEN, SHORT, LOAD, ISOLATION, THRU calibration. Skipping that step can result in a bad calibration state even though all screen indications

Are you doing a RESET before Calibration. I find sometimes I have to touch RESET a few times to perform the operation. Roger

I had tried with another set of cables with the same result. I measured the cables not connected to anything and on DC they measure fine. Connected to the VNA both read 50 ohms (DC)

Check your cables with an ohm meter (DMM). Your photo is fuzzy but it looks like you have a short.... Roger

I recently tried to measure the loss in my cables for HF ham radio. I did the calibration steps, but when I do the THRU calibration, after calibrating the CH1 LOGMAG line isn't flat at 0dB. It looks

I have the original small screen version and both the -F and -H4. They all work well with Saver. However, you must the latest version of Saver on your PC / laptop. Dave - W?LEV [email protected]>
