Re: Cheap calibration loads

Hello All, Could someone advise if these SMA terminators are good ? I've done a resistance check at DC using multimeter and it's shown 68 Ohms (too high by me, should be lower). Secondly, I've

Cheap calibration loads

Ever wonder why some 50 ohm loads are reasonably priced, look great at dc, but quickly veer off 50 ohms at higher frequencies? Take a look at the attached photo, courtesy of one of the Russian NanoVNA

Re: Corrupted firmware.
Another suggestion to reduce novice frustration is to advise them to download the ST files using a PC that has their email client installed, in order to pass ST¡¯s identity verification scheme.

Re: Full reflection runs over the perimeter of the smith chart
No, but I do not have semi rigid coax.. First measurement using 35cm RG316 shows loss from 250-400MHz. Second measurement using longer LMR-400 shows loss from 41.67-66.67MHz, approximately matching
