Re: Variation in readings of R value
Mike Is the scale of your reactance graph supposed to be in kohms and not just ohms? I think so because at 3 MHz the impedance of the series L-C would be about -j911 ohms. Correct? Pete

Hi Mike, Please see message # 23812. This documents one approach. Alan

Re: Calibration
What happens when you try to calibrate it? "Can't get it calibrated" isn't very specific. Does the unit fail to respond correctly at some point in the calibration procedure?

Re: Variation in readings of R value
Hi Pete, it's an air cored coil with an inductance of around 108uH. I made the measurement with an 18pF COG capacitor in series so the plot is showing the resistance around the resonant frequency of

Re: S11 ? if Zc complexe
For HF and higher frequencies, L >> R and C >> G are generally good assumptions. We can then simplify the general expressions for complex characteristic impedance and complex propagation constant to:

Re: Variation in readings of R value
Hi MIke What component type are you using for the test? Trying to understand why the R is changing myself. I would think the resistance of a fixed series resistor would remain fairly constant if it

Re: Calibration
Doug, I have seen this demo and observed that the calibration procedure was i.m.o. not properly done. At marker 3:48 of the video you see that after the CAL button in the menu was pressed next the

Re: Variation in readings of R value
OK if I may answer my own question, I repeated the measurement using the S21 method and got a sensible answer. -- Mike

Variation in readings of R value
I've been following this article on how to accurately measure the Q of a coil: https://pa3a.nl/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Measurements-With-The-NanoVNA-Part-7-Measuring-the-Q-of-a-coil.pdf I measured

Re: Pickup Coil Construction for Inductor Measuremenfs
Ok. I understand. If you cant remove coil from its surrounding circuit, a GDO is usefull. "(Why? Because oceans on Titan are likely liquid methane, ethane, etc)," interesting. Good luck with that

Re: Best Windows Software for Nano VNA-F?
I also have a nanoVNA-F with which I am very satisfied: use f < 300 MHz). Thanks to this forum I was able to update the Firmware. It is not essential but we can thus recover the .sp1 and .sp2 files

Re: Best Windows Software for Nano VNA-F?
I use NanoVNA-Saver (which is in Python, and runs on any platform). Others like NanoVNA-App, which is Windows only. Those two seem to be popular. If you're looking for something minimalist, there's

Best Windows Software for Nano VNA-F?
Group: I have a Nano-F V. 3.1 but have never controlled it from my computer. I'd like to do that, as I need to generate and save an S1P file for some RF transformer work I'm doing. Can someone please

Re: Buggy firmware when compiling with GCC-ARM version 12 - ok with GCC-ARM version 8
I think this related to gcc speed optimisation, TinySA code critical to execute timings and can depend from how compiler optimise code Most of warnings related to ChibiOS low level code PS gcc v9.3

Buggy firmware when compiling with GCC-ARM version 12 - ok with GCC-ARM version 8
This happens with tinySA as well with NanoVNA, see my github issues: https://github.com/erikkaashoek/tinySA/issues/70 and https://github.com/DiSlord/NanoVNA-D/issues/65

Calibration
I have a VNA-H. I can't get it calibrated. I don't think it is the unit, I think it's just me. I notice some instructions are for newer units. So what would you recommend? Best instructions and maybe
