Re: test fixture - how bad can it be? A non-rhetorical question
Oh, I'm lately working at < 10 MHz and am satisfied to get with 10% of expectations. I wish nanoVNA worked at < 10 kHz..

Re: A strange S11 from a amplifier #circuit #tutorials #general_vna
Wow! I'd say that S11 is not the only strange thing here. For example, why is S21 so peaked? When you say "no matching" does this mean that the input is applied directly to the base (or gate) and that

Re: RF Demo Kit Testing tutorial released
There are several SMA board edge connectors on Ebay. There are models for 1.6mm and 1mm thicknessess. And of course normal models for soldering into board.

Re: A strange S11 from a amplifier #circuit #tutorials #general_vna
it looks like oscillation. Connect the output of the amplifier to the VNA through a 6 or 10 dB attenuator and have another look at s11. Dave - W?LEV -- *Dave - W?LEV* *Just Let Darwin Work* *Just

A strange S11 from a amplifier #circuit #tutorials #general_vna
This is probably not NanoVNA specific. I made a quick and simple amplifier of leaded BF199 and some passive components. Collector is via a coil I happened to have. There is no matching. Input is

Re: First PCB pictures of the V2
The power inverter, microcontroller, USB and display are already RF sources. BlueTooth should energize only between sweeps.

Re: test fixture - how bad can it be? A non-rhetorical question
Thanks all for the comments. I am not yet convinced that series inductance of the capacitor leads explains why I measure 26pF more at 28MHz. The 100pF was connected with minimal lead length so I

Re: errors of "error" models
You can certainly perform a calibration with arbitrary values - all the electronic calibration units do this - they can't generate anywhere near perfect opens and shorts using electronic switches.

Re: RF Demo Kit Testing tutorial released
I personally don't think they will last long in the hands of a ham trying to learn, or demonstrate it to others. I rather suspect that sooner or later someone will produce something similar with SMA

Re: RF Demo Kit Testing tutorial released
Yes, but it does not solve the problem that a completely inappropriate connector is used.

Re: Si5351A Part Number #repair #internals
Hi, For clarification: An SI5351 outputs square-wave signals that contain only odd multiples of the fundamental frequency (3 * f, 5 * f, ...). To reach 1500 MHz, 7 * 214.285 MHz are therefore required
