Spiff72: I decided to attach the -3db attenuators as 'savers', since they seem most likely to be used? Thank you, Chris, KJ7BLE

Re: calibrating the low output
This is from the example "Calibrating the low output level". The first part talks about setting up a 30MHz, -25 dBm signal and seeing it with a scope at the HIGH INPUT after setting CAL OUTPUT to 30

To answer the question from Christopher about the foam, I think this would be roughly equivalent to the foam I used for the upper case: https://amzn.to/2V9OKaR The above should be a 5-pack of 12" x 8"

tinySA for RFI hunt?

UPDATE:? The Thingiverse page looks like it has updated now.? I had to clear by browser cache for it to show correctly.

I have updated my Thingiverse page to DELETE the old STL files and STP assembly files, and uploaded the new versions (filenames include 073021a as a datestamp).? This may time to update correctly

Re: TinySA screen legend
No. As I understand it, lowercase indicates automatic mode; uppercase indicates that you've made a manual change to the setting. Andrew, KI5HYC.

Re: 3D Printed Case for tinySA

Nice!? I see you have some longer SMA connector savers (I assume that's what they are).? Those look longer than the ones I accounted for.? Do you have a similar attenuator in there that you can

I printed it in blue PETG, and it looks and fits great! Thank you! Where do you get your self adhesive foam that is in your pictures? Thank you again, Chris, KJ7BLE

Re: calibrating the low output
Is this the example where the frequency or level of the cal output is measured? If so this is the explanation: The high connector is used for both the high input/output, the cal output and the LO

It seems that I had forgotten to adjust those little scallops in the upper housing after I made the adjustment to accommodate the SMA connector savers.

Oops - I was just looking at the assembly to see if I could shrink it without too much work (I can), but I noticed an interference between the attenuators and the feature in the upper case that is

calibrating the low output
The TinySA example starts with connect the high output to the scope then it says to set "CAL OUTPUT at 30MHz and set it to HIGH INPUT mode". I would think that should have been HIGH OUTPUT since we

Re: 3D Printed Case for tinySA

The obvious solution is to just buy a bigger 3D printer! If I get some time, I will try to see if I can create an alternate version that reduces the current 150mm width, but it may require sacrificing
