Re: Am I in the right track ?
Yes. When I commented "clean" the copper from beneath the inductors, I imply no copper beneath the component(s). Yes, that will introduce a slight impedance bump in the line. However, even a bit of

Re: Tdr
I know the NanoVNA H4 has a TDR function because I've used it. It isn't called that in the menu and is a little tricky to figure out. There is a Youtube'video that describes its setup. Also message

Tdr
Haven’t bought one yet but I’d like to make sure I get a version capable of the TDR addition. I’ll have to figure out how to add it if necessary after receiving it. Thanks.

Re: Am I in the right track ?
Dave, That's very interesting. That is what I came across the datasheet of the capacitors I bought. Look at the picture, I think that's what you're talking about. Unfortunately, it is not mentioned

Re: Measuring inductance
Dave, the first photo is with the 10pf cap and at 150mhz it measures 10pf. Since you mention measuring all components, do you have any tips on getting a 50ohm match on the inductor at the desired

Re: Measuring inductance
When constructing filters, I ALWAYS measure every component before building the filter! With that, I seldom have to do ANY tweaking with the completed filter. If your first image is without anything

Re: Measuring inductance
Zack, Here's a link to the filter I'm building. It's not a chebyshev, there was an article in QEX about it comparing the two. https://github.com/F6ITU/k_zolotarev And the qex

Re: Measuring inductance
Where did you get the filter design you are using? Playing around with my filter design program, I found it appears you are using a 7th order Chebyshev low pass filter, inductor input. Possibly a

Re: Measuring inductance
There's a lot of information here and I appreciate everyone's input- I reset and recalibrated the nanovna after finishing up the test rig according to Dave's build, i missed the copper tape on the

I'm not aware of an updated menu structure map, nor of a consolidated description of features of the current 1.2.40 firmware. Unfortunately, it takes a bunch of time and effort to create such

Re: Apologetic Intro Message
Stan, thank you for the advice. As mentioned, I became familiar with the H4 one or two years ago (my past dims) and -- per your advice -- I did go ahead and upgrade from 0.5.0 to 1.2.4 and, my word,

Re: Am I in the right track ?
Since you are dealing with SM inductors, I remembered something I've learned and practiced for a couple of decades. In mounting SM inductors it matters how they are constructed internally. The

Re: Apologetic Intro Message
A couple more notes: 1 - If your primary use of the nanoVNA is HF up to about 450MHz, then there is no need to buy a new model. I am still actively using my nanoVNA-H4 from 2020, and it is all I need

Gentlemen, Thank you for the recommendations: if it works, don't fix it and last year's model/FW version works fine if it works fine. Probably better my devoting my time to [re-]learning and using

Re: Apologetic Intro Message
I generally update the firmware whenever a newer version is available. There have been some improvements made in some of the versions that were worth having. Zack W9SZ [email protected]> wrote:
