Re: EFFECT OF CMCs and/or BALUNS on RECEIVED NOISE
I use CMCs on two antennas; a dipole and a 1/4wave 2 meter vertical with counterpoises. But I have a third antenna, an off center fed dipole with a balun. I have assumed that the balun will also

Re: MORE CMC SINGLE CORE DATA
Mark,
Indeed for a given voltage the current will be determined by reactance, or more correctly by impedance, and the permeability of the core material is one of the factors determining it. So, if

EFFECT OF CMCs and/or BALUNS on RECEIVED NOISE
For those unbelievers in feedline chokes to properly treat CM energy on
feedlines, I made some quantitative tests using my HF antenna and Icom
7300. So,...... have a read of the short attachment.

Re: PC Won't Recognize Unit in DFU Mode so Can't Update Firmware
Found my problem. Screen protector was wadded under case. Removed the

Try tapping the screen anywhere. I have no idea if this will work, but it

Re: MORE CMC SINGLE CORE DATA
Mark pretty much covered why stacking cores of differing materials is a
really bad idea. I've never tried it from day one as I understand the
problems which Mark addressed. However, connecting CMC

Thanks very much for the reply, Jim.
Ideally, the question of what happens when a Mix 31 and a Mix 43 core are bound together and turns wrapped through them would be answered by first solving

Re: MORE CMC SINGLE CORE DATA
Could you increase the turns and re-measure? I'd like to see what happens since I need a CMC choke for a milti band antenna.
These cores were stacked correct? I wonder about two in series, a 31 and a

Hi,
Where do I find the above referenced "NanoVNA-App", I do not see this in the FILES section. I assume that this software makes it easy for a non-computer person to do the Firmware Update.

Re: latest model of the nanovna which one?
Since you don't say why you want one, or what you would use it for, here's my thoughts.
If you are going to use it outdoors, get the NanoVNA-F. (There is just 'one' to choose from.)
