Re: Measuring S11 at input of RF power amplifier - could I calibrate "through" an attenuator?
What about connecting the amplifier to a dummy load thru an antenna tuner. Tune for minimum SWR. Then use the Nano to read the impedance of the tuner/dummy load? Joe

Re: Measure Inductance?
Is everything these days a YouTube "presentation". I'm not knocking what is presented, as the theory is sound and is rather reminiscent of the setup employed when measuring inductance with a grid dip

Re: Measuring S11 at input of RF power amplifier - could I calibrate "through" an attenuator?
While an interesting measurement, unless the amp is powered, the characteristics of the active device will be way off. Now when powered (A learning experience from years ago) there will be quite a bit

Re: Measuring S11 at input of RF power amplifier - could I calibrate "through" an attenuator?
IT would help to know what amp you are looking into with the Nano. I have been able to check and tune mine with the power off by manually closing the keying circuit

download the calibration from the NanoVNA
Hallo all of you, Do you know if it is possible to download the calibration files from the naanoVNA to the NanoVNA Saver? I understand NanoSave Saver can use the device (NanaVNA) calibration... . I

Re: Measure Inductance?
I think you need a low frequency to determine the inductance (as say you know).Say between 10kHz and 200kHz? The log(|Z|) curve in a log(Freq) should go up in a straight line (NanoVNA Saver can

Re: Measure Inductance?
First put an adapter on the SMA connector and set up the calibration.? Go to Smith Chart.? Select your frequency range.? Short the test leads and see how much residual inductance there is.? Then

Re: danger measuring antenna
Dave: That choke also serves another very important function; it will short the plate supply to ground if the anode coupling capacitor should suffer from leakage current or fail short, keeping you

Re: Measure coax length with Transform, where does the length start?
When you do your calibration, the device includes the cable length as part of the device. It doesn¡¯t matter if you do the calibrations at the vna or at the end of a 20 foot cable, that distance is

Measure coax length with Transform, where does the length start?
Hello, Measuring coax length has been discussed in several topics. However I have a query. I have calibrated at the end of the short coaxes delivered with the Nano (in my case NanoVNA H4) about 18 cm

Re: 340 MHz Dipole - Calibration at Transmitter and Antenna Ends of Transmission Line
The coax need not be any specific length, just long enough to make a "good" measurement (low enough in frequency). Z = SQRT (L/C) applies to any length, so long as the L and C are measured over the

Re: 340 MHz Dipole - Calibration at Transmitter and Antenna Ends of Transmission Line
Maybe you are assuming that the characteristics of your RG58A/U are as published. There is no guarantee that coax from lesser vendors actually meets the published specification defined for RG58A/U. I

Re: 340 MHz Dipole - Calibration at Transmitter and Antenna Ends of Transmission Line
Dave - I'd first like to explain why the Smith Chart method is showing 51.067 ohms for the RG-58A/U in the SimSmith simulation. As you can see in the attachments of my previous post, no adapters are
