Command Line Functionality
#scripting
I built an antenna tuner that has a Raspberry Pi controlling a stepper motor (roller inductor) and two servos (two capacitors). I created a function for it that will step through all possible

Re: Need help
Before you do any new cal., be sure to clear any past cal memories.

Need help
I have calibrated the VNA. With the short plug it shows 1:12.76 SWR. After calibration if I reinsert the short plug it shows SWR of 1:9554.1 to 1:2147483647.47.
Is there away to do a hard reset

Re: Transmission Line Tools
The second program is TLW (Transmission Line for Windows) by Dean Straw (N6BV) one of the editors of the ARRL Antenna Book. It is a good complement to TLD because it can plot what is happening along

Transmission Line Tools
There has been a lot of discussion about transmission lines recently. I thought the group might be interested in some very useful free tools.
The first one is TLD - Transmission Line Details by

Re: Definition of resonance
I redid my simulation assuming that Torbj?rn Toreson did not use a current balun at the feedpoint. An additional antenna element that represented the outside surface of the coax shield was added.

Re: What is the resonate frequency of this?
That's a very curious result that I didn't see coming.
Well worth figuring out.
Here's a python script to demonstrate what Roger says.
I chose L and C at random to be 1uH and 200pF.
Though I still

And such are used as "all pass" networks to get phase shifts between two arms.

Re: What is the resonate frequency of this?
That is correct. You need to write the admittance for each series branch and isolate out the real and imaginary parts. For that case the value for the resonate point is 1/root(LC), BUT modified by the

Re: What is the resonate frequency of this?
If the components were ideal components there would be no resonant frequency. The "equivalent parallel reactance" of C and L would be equal and opposite at all frequencies and the impedance would be

Re: Definition of resonance
Can someone please shed some light on the definition of resonance in
conjunction with an antenna.
I'll make an attempt.
Let's agree that "resonance occurs when +/- jX is zero".
It does not take

Re: Order of calibrating
At least using 2019 nanoVNA firmware, order DOES matter:
the device is making the "next" measurement until that expected button is pressed.
If an unexpected button is pressed, current device data is

Re: Definition of resonance
Anne,
I think your central point is that with a 50+j0 ohm load and a 50 ohm transmission line,
the transmitter sees a 50 ohm impedance looking into the coax regardless
of the length of the coax.

Re: Has OneOfEleven gone again?
This is a very lame post.
Your behaviour is the reason devs like 1of11 are not fully sharing their
work.
I suggest you to have some respect.

Re: What is the resonate frequency of this?
Correction:
Inductive impedance is positive, capacitive impedance is negative.
So scanning through a quartz crystal from high frequencies to low,
the impedance is positive, then negative between

Re: What is the resonate frequency of this?
Regarding a quartz crystal, another puzzle is the characteristic impedance over frequency.
If you check the impedance on your nanovna you will see that it is inductive at frequencies
