Re: Semi-bad clone?
Hi Frank, The 4 trace or 4 track vs. 2 trace or 2 track thing is a FIRMWARE THING. All of the nanoVNA devices as far as I know have the same hardware and share the same system schematic. Although

Re: Semi-bad clone?
Hi Alan You've obviously got a good one there. I have been finding odd calibration issues and finally worked out it mine is happier up to 450 MHz and not going too low either, although the issue may

Re: Semi-bad clone?
Hi Mike, Here is a 3 pole helical filter centered at 465 MHz. The filter is "C" coupled so the skirt on the high side rolls more gentle than low side. The insertion loss and return loss as well

Re: Only two trace
Yes, you have the 2- track firmware and you are going to have to update the firmware to the 4 track firmware. See your manual or get a copy of the pdf manual. A link to the manual is here on this

Only two trace
Hi all, I bought a nanoVNA on ebay like on the attached photo. And as you can see on the photo, there are 4 traces on it. I only have two. And I have no idea I have to make the other 2 visible. In

Re: NanoVNA and Linux
Opps note ... After making the firware backup the device reboots .. so you need to put it back into DFU mode.

Re: Semi-bad clone?
Hi Mike. I did extensive measurements on narrow as well wide band filters. Also a number of antenna out in the field. I have compared results with VNA big box, Vector Z Meters and the results at HF

Re: Semi-bad clone?
Hi Alan Agreed that comparison with a big VNA would be v interesting. I'm not aware that any of my friends have one of those though. Mind you at this price I wouldn't expect too much. The frequency

Re: Semi-bad clone?
Hi John, Mike, Several folks have done various measurements including myself. Measurements and records between big box VNA and the nanoVNA would be of interest. However, that said, my best guess is

Re: firmware reload
Yes, the various clones 'should' work the same way. As for placing your unit into DFU mode, the contacts only need to be shorted at power-up, that is why I soldered a small button switch there. After
