Re: What is the resonate frequency of this?
Good question, David.
Perhaps you could have typed it in using a fixed width font? My email does this.
Perhaps not UTF8? I usually send plain text, but am sending this in hopes that it will come thru

Re: What is the resonate frequency of this?
My first guess was that the resonant frequency is unchanged by any value of R, though Q is certainly changed.
A quick drawing of the vector diagram seems to agree with this.

John,
Just installed the firmware version you recommended, but I still am seeing a default stop frequency of 900MHz. Is there a setting I need to change so that I can measure frequencies beyond

Francisco,
The ttrftech reop only contains H and earlier firmware so you have no issue with installing anything from there on to your Nanovna.
Hugen makes versions for H and H4 but they all have H or

Re: Definition of resonance
I have a spreadsheet that I use...developed after much research into the subject of sag and tension...
I set it up for a nominal Synthetic Textiles support rope - 5mm and antenna

Re: Definition of resonance
Apologies if I'm wrong but nobody seems to have asked if there is a balun at the dipole feed point. If there is no balun the coax will be part of the antenna, which would explain lower frequency

I try several firmware at https://github.com/ttrftech/NanoVNA/releases but issue remains. Also I cant tell if those are for H or H4.
In other place I found one still old (0.4.5-4 ) with a clear

Re: Definition of resonance
Whether the system of transmission line plus antenna is resonant is a matter of how you define terms.
Me, I'd say a specific length of transmission line is as acceptable as a lumped LC impedance

Re: Order of calibrating
If the nano follows the HP network analyzers, it doesn't matter what the order is until after DONE is pushed.....even if you did one of the conditions over again.
Does it matter with the nano?

Re: Definition of resonance
Ed,
He is not seeing more "antenna resonances". The antenna is only resonant at 9 Mhz., 27 MHz. 45 Mhz. etc...
What he is seeing is the reactance at the input of the coaxial cable become 0 at

I think you may want:
https://github.com/ttrftech/NanoVNA/releases/tag/0.8.0
0.8.0 allows Stop Freq up to 2.7GHz. On my unit, (NanoVNA-H V3.4) it is only useful up to 2GHz or so. Up to

Re: Animated GIF of reflections
Ahh, antenna voltage is exactly equal to Vsum.
I wrote: "Which I did not expect, let me know if I have it wrong,"
I was not wrong, just a little bit thick headed.
Those are both real voltages

Re: Definition of resonance
Ed,
Looks to me like he really does have all those resonances at the transmitter end of his feed line.
An appropriate length of feedline will turn any arbitrary impedance into a pure resistance.

This is a correction to my first post. Unfortunately that simulation was not done in high accuracy mode so it did not correctly model the effect of ground so close to the antenna. The following

Re: Definition of resonance
Ok.
We all agree free space theoretical resonance would be something like 9.35 MHz.
We also agree closer to ground would lower fundamental resonance to something lower, like 9.125 or so.
But I have

Re: Definition of resonance
and one might want to disconnect "resonance" from "radiation efficiency" - a 10 meter long dipole (resonant at around 15 MHz) will efficiently *radiate* over a huge range of frequencies, probably
