Re: [Measuring] Is there an easy way to measure balun loss?
But I only have one unit, and I would like to know if there is an easy way - ie, without an oscilloscope etc - to measure the transmission loss through a unun.

Re: [Measuring] Is there an easy way to measure balun loss?
Probably the best inexpensive technique would be using back-to-back or tandem identical devices. The back-to-back system allows use of 50-ohm meters at each end, or S21 and S12 measurements with

Re: Calibration standards - pl-259?
MFJ is selling a set and that is good enough for HF and the tolerances are good enough for every day "hobby" work. I always lol at people promoting commercial calibration standards costing hundreds if

Phase measurement on the reference line.
Phase measurement on the reference line. At a frequency of 600 MHz, it is very accurate, at a frequency of 1250 MHz a slight discrepancy. For information to the group.

One caveat to measuring at the end of a long cable is that the calibration and measurement may need to have the sweep speed reduced. A round trip reflection cal or measurement with a 100 M

Re: NanoVNA dealers in Europe?
Don't know whereabouts you are. I bought my nanoVNA-H from Mirfield Electronics here in the UK. Arrived in 4 days, well packed and included a couple of extras adapters for PL259/SO239 in the price.
