Re: NanaVNA H4 battery indicator shows full but unit powers off after a minute
Scott, This may not help, but try leaving it charging overnight and see if that helps. It could be just the battery went bad. 73, Cliff, AE5ZA

NanaVNA H4 battery indicator shows full but unit powers off after a minute
My battery indicator icon shows a full charge but the unit turns off after about a minute. I charged it for about 5 minutes, unplugged the USB cable and it stayed on for about the same amount of time

Re: upgrade old version NanoVNA H vers 3.4
Hi, I know the config DFU setting, but with my HW modification it is even faster to enter DFU mode - switch off, press the jog, switch on, release the jog - this helps me when I test my own FW

I'm not sure it would really be worth it - there are lots of later books which might have a better tutorial. So you'd be possessing it for its historical significance - for which the $400 might be

Thank's, Jim (Lux)! I'm an old fart (75) and still much prefer a printed copy. With ARRL so non-technical these days, I seriously doubt we could convince them to, once again, carry the reprints? At

Re: At which point do we take the value of impedance to tune an antenna?
Again, that's why SimSmith is an indispensable tool when dealing with complex impedances and over different frequencies. It is a universal presentation tool in the professional RF and microwave world.

Re: At which point do we take the value of impedance to tune an antenna?
And I say that if we represented the Smith as attached, it would be much clearer. This is also how we project impedances on the Smith. It has, in addition, the great interest of materializing the S11

Re: New owner of nanovna-H and H4, However pondering the next step in precision
No problem.. The whole "uncertainty analysis" for a VNA can be remarkably complex - people spend their entire life researching it, getting a PhD along the way. If you think about something simple,

Re: At which point do we take the value of impedance to tune an antenna?
Roger, you make an excellent point. I would however like to point out that I believe your 100 +j0 and 25 +j0 are swapped. 25 should be on the left side and 100 should be on the right side of the

Re: New owner of nanovna-H and H4, However pondering the next step in precision
sure.. The way the NanoVNA receivers work is by taking the input signal and mixing it with a LO that is 5 kHz away and doing an analog low pass filter. That audio 5 kHz signal is fed into a standard

Re: New owner of nanovna-H and H4, However pondering the next step in precision
As long as you tell the calibration algorithms the impedance of the 3 test loads, then it doesn't matter a whole lot. There are better and worse values, of course, but ultimately, it's a "solve three

Hi Roger, This is an (educational) presentation, not a paper. My talks are always for radioamateurs and this formula is best known. This triggers the audience to listen before it gets more
