The state and further development of the firmware #firmware


 

This note is a request to the firmware developers.
Please consider creating a YouTube series describing the structure of the various modules that comprise the
nano vna firmware.

Please include getting the development tools installed and show a make/compile.

I ask since I would be interested in developing a branch, but geeee it is hell to pick up someone else's code.

I suspect that many others may be interested in continuing the development, but the entry learning curve is steep..

thanks
dan


 

ATM practically the only developer for Nano V1 is DisLord and
unless you speak Russian, I doubt you will get anything out
those videos.

Dan,
I was able to follow the comments in the source code without issue, and I have only an inkling knowledge of c++.?
The originator of the NanoVNA, Takahashi, created a number of webpages describing the design. I converted them to pdfs and placed them in the forum files section.?
In creating the command reference document back in 2019, I read through the source code as there was no there info at the time.?
YouTube videos are not much help if you're not an EE with RF knowledge on the workings of VNA technology, there's a LOT of math involved.?
Others have taken the code and improved the UI and other high-level functions.?
Look in the forum Wiki and files sections as well as various posts (read my search tips doc) you'll find what you needed as did I.?
... Larry
