Re: Problem with eBay seller SV4401A: CAUTION11 #buying
Of course anyone¡¯s experience may vary, but over a period of years I have made purchased dozens of purchases from both AliExpress and Banggood. I have never had any issues with either group. However

Re: Problem with eBay seller SV4401A: CAUTION11 #buying
Similar story on AliExpress out of China on a few orders. In this scam the vender would issue a FedEx tracking number that would show delivered, after some time. However, in conversation on line with

Re: Problem with eBay seller SV4401A: CAUTION11 #buying
I agree, Paypal is UNSCRUPULOUS, disagree?? Read the story about the guy that made a huge buy of 18650 li-ion cells and then got SCREWED by Pay@$#^ because they (Pay@#$^) wanted to hold the payments 6

Re: Problem with eBay seller SV4401A: CAUTION11 #buying
Yes, I think we need to use payment methods that offer protection for unscrupulous sellers. And PayPal is a good example. ?n joi, 24 nov. 2022 la 00:33, John <ve3kkqve3kkq@...> a scris:

Re: Problem with eBay seller SV4401A: CAUTION11 #buying
I realize that this bit of advice is too late, but always buy from the OFFICIAL vendor. I had a similar experience with a "really good deal" on a Chinese VHF mobile radio. I was very excited to

Re: Problem with eBay seller SV4401A: CAUTION11 #buying
Unfortunately, such situations have also appeared on Aliexpress. Fictitious tracking numbers, seen only by them. Shopping in China has become an adventure. The biggest loss I took was 120 USD, but I

Problem with eBay seller SV4401A: CAUTION11 #buying
I purchased a model SV4401A 8-inch VNA from eBay seller Hui3165 on Oct 24 because their price was much lower than any other supplier. I followed the tracking on SpeedPAK Standard from China to my

Re: Determining OCFD total length and split points #circuit
I ran some quick NEC models, results attached. The R doesn't change a lot until you get outside, say, 0.3 to 0.7 split point (0.5 in middle). This was a dipole "cut" for 10 MHz resonance. And the

Re: Determining OCFD total length and split points #circuit
One might want a transformer (which could serve as a balun or RF choke) on an OCF dipole, because the resistive impedance at resonance is typically quite high, compared to 50 ohms. OTOH, if the

Re: Determining OCFD total length and split points #circuit
The OCF set of wires is NOT a balauced (differential mode) source/load! Why use a balun? A balun is a circuit element intended to transform differential mode (dipole) to common mode (coax). An RF

Re: Determining OCFD total length and split points #circuit
You MIGHT be able to do it with 2 measurements. Use the TDR function to measure one section (lelement) and then the other section. I assume that you would have to reverse the NanoVNA's connection to

Re: Determining OCFD total length and split points #circuit
Getting back to the original question - can you use the NanoVNA to determine where the feed point is in an offcenter dipole: NanoVNA can easily determine resonant frequency (where X=0). Onc

Re: Determining OCFD total length and split points #circuit
Just to check ¡ª¡ª The resonant frequency of any dipole (center fed, OCF, or end-fed) is determined only but the TOTAL length of the wire, and not be WHERE you feed it. (And maybe how high above

this is a really good article on ocfd at various different places. seems you can select from about 20% to over 33%. All depends on your prefered frequencies.

Re: Determining OCFD total length and split points #circuit
OCFD puts the feedpoint at 5/8lambda from one end. That would be about 81-82ft for a 80m antenna. Stephen W9SK
