Re: Defective NanoVna
Hi Mike, Thanks very much for that information. The 800 MHz aa version of the firmware corrected the problem. The 800 MHz ch version did not. In fact the 880 MHz ch version still goes out to 900 MHz.

Re: Defective NanoVna
Hi Jim The 800MHz versions of the firmware are the ones that avoid glitches at 300 and/or 600MHz. The design seems to be based on pushing chips beyind spec and using harmonics of the oscillator signal

Re: Defective NanoVna
Yes, I did reload firmware with nanoVNA_900ch_20190722.dfu Forgot to mention that earlier. The above firmware did help on one I got earlier with a lot lower spike but did not help much on this one.
