I think horizontal line from cable loss. Very good free simulator program: http://harriman.ddns.net/Smith_Charts.html Simulate lossy coax (for example RG-58), now subract with ideal lossless coax.

Re: Problems on installation on Linux
Hi, try just running "python3 nanovna-saver.py" - if you have the prerequisites installed, it will just run. :-) Otherwise, edit setup.py and remove the fix for version 5.11.3 - which is really only

Re: usb controled rf generator.
I have one.? I am happy with it, except that the USB connector is only soldered to the circuit board, rather than screwed to something solid.? I read somebody's report that the connector had come

Garry Thanks for the feedback. I tested also with a better semi rigid cable. The model finds a somewhat different R, I guess the cable has a bit different impedance but the imaginary part is the same.

Hi Erik; I think your assumptions are incorrect. To achieve what you are attempting requires your test cable be free of imperfections. In truth, the cable is not likely precisely a constant Z0 equal

Kurt suggested that very good cable is wanted, e.g. airline. I notice better results from LMR-400 than RG58 or RG316

After calibration with the correct calibration error parameters, a 1 meter cable connected to the reference plane with short and open at its other end, should give perfect circles spiraling inwards in

Sure, but one fixed LPF suffices, rather than LPF tracking swept square wave.
