Re: SRH508S Antenna SWR with NanoVNA
Does it require a ground plane? I would put an SMA connector centered on a plate of PC clad card. Then feed the cable thru back to the VNA. ________________________________ Sent: Thursday, July 11,

SRH508S Antenna SWR with NanoVNA
Decided to test this SRH805S wide band antenna. They claim it covers 144/430/1200 MHz. While the nano doesn't cover 1200 MHz, it does handle the lower two bands. Clearly there is a problem as 144 MHz

Re: Narrow band filters and LO phase noise/jitter?
This 500 Hz bandwidth filter is problematic. Upon further measurements with another instrument there are issues. I will find another baseline network and report findings

Re: Measurement of output signal
QEX is a magazine published by the ARRL for communications experimenters. The articles and papers in it are much more technically-oriented than most of what is in the QST ARRL magazine. One must be an

Re: Narrow band filters and LO phase noise/jitter?
In crystal factories crystals are measured in a 50Ohm system with a pi-network on both sides as per enclosed picture. Don't know if the resistance values are readable in the compressed picture so here

Re: Extended back cover
I can pull mine apart and see if I can come up with something. I agree, the "external" parts need dome protection

Re: Extended back cover
Some people don't have the "ability" to modify that box. This way, if you just wanted to add a (or bigger) battery, it is only 4 screws and double sided tape (which I could probably throw

Re: Extended back cover
There is some value added packaging if it can be done at a reasonable cost. The slide switch and the rotary wheel switch are subject to failure or breakage. Especially when used in the field. The LCD

Re: Extended back cover
I think it depends on the battery. I'm looking for "surplus" batteries to keep the cost down. I had mine open, and never looked to see the mAh rating on the battery. I figure under 1000mAh should be

Re: Extended back cover
Folks, Instead of reinventing the wheel to design a case, have a look at the 1553BBK series Hammond housing. It's approx $12 CAD. It looks like a small amount of internal trimming might be needed but

Re: Narrow band filters and LO phase noise/jitter?
In this video, Alan also correctly designates the IF BW as Resolution BW in his notes.

Re: Narrow band filters and LO phase noise/jitter?
Spectrum (and Network) analyzers have multiple up/down conversions in their RF chain before reaching the last IF section. The IF BW of those middle converters (before the last IF) is fairly wide

Re: Narrow band filters and LO phase noise/jitter?
The IF BW is " intermediate frequency bandwidth" What does RBW stand for and is it the same as IF BW ? Thanks in advance Greg
