Re: Delay due to damage
Hi Erik and Herb This is a copy of what I received via Amazon UK. I had held back from buying a tinySA until it was advertised on Amazon UK as I prefer buying items that way. Erik mentioned a few weeks ago that Amazon would be a source?for the?tinySA at the end of August. . The only Amazon seller was the one I used, that is dexuan. I followed the tracking which?said the tiny was in transit. The expected delivery date was Sept 18th to Sept 23rd, a very short?time. The attached information arrived today Sept 17th.? The order was made on Sept 12th. and it?went?through Amazont smoothly. I have decided to wait for a new tinySA and hope this arrives one day. I just this is all genuine. What do you think?

The seller is Dexuan.
?
Today I received an email from Dexuan to say that the case was damaged and they have given me two options.
Cancel my order.
Agree to wait longer for a replacement.
I agreed to the latter but do not know the? delivery date as yet.
?
Let us hope this situation is unusual and packaging will be satisfactory in future.
=============================================================== ? The way the tinySA is packaged in a box with molded packaging it would be very difficult for the tinySA to be damaged during shipment.? Possibly the shipping container? was damaged by some heavy handed postal workers.? ? Also, case damage is a common excuse for sellers who over commit and can't fill an order.? Three of my club members had their orders canceled because the seller did not receive as many tinySA's as he had ordered. - Herb |

Will the SA firmware run correctly if it doesn't see the display and touch input??The display should not be a problem but you may have to solder some resistors to get the X/Y touch input in the right state (e.g. not touched) Never has been tested |

Probably the primary issue was lack of the 'back' button for exiting the measure menu. ?-Herb |

Re: tinysa

in your first sentence about keeping it 10 dbm maximum ..is it minus 10 dbm or a normal 10 dbm which is 10 milli watts thanks On Wed, 16 Sep 2020, 16:11 Erik Kaashoek, <erik@...> wrote: On Wed, Sep 16, 2020 at 07:14 AM, Karl Heinz Kremer - K5KHK wrote: |

Maybe as Igor suggested the behavior after exiting the 'measure' menu should be to return to the previous user set-up.This can be implemented but you will also lose any change in setting you did after starting with the measurement so that is not perfect.? The other alternative is to only do a limited deactivation of the measure setup. Which still may be difficult to understand. How do other SA deal with this? |

An "official" reseller is expected to start on amazon, ebay and others, but I have no info yet which store name they will useHi Erik, I thought that was the case, but I didn't want to suggest an 'unofficial' suppler to others who were interested in buying one, as the development team(s) would possibly suffer as a result.

Re: Official or Unofficial sellers on Amazon ?
I have a few TinySAs from Maggie's Alibaba store that I can ship USPS Priority Mail. Contact me off-list if you are interested.

Erik, ? Igor is correct.? If you accidently select the measure menu there is no way to back out of it without losing your settings.? There should either be a 'back' button (intuitive) or selecting the 'OFF' button should act as a 'back' button (not as intuitive) that sends you up one menu level without loosing your settings. ? I usually store my current set-up in one of the four store locations before using the measure menu so that I can re-load it after a 'measure' operation, since I know exiting the 'measure' menu defaults to start-up settings.? Maybe as Igor suggested the behavior after exiting the 'measure' menu should be to return to the previous user set-up. - Herb |

It lists the maximum input power as 10dBm - anything more and you will likely fry it. For a "good" reading, I try to keep the input signal below -30dBmThis is with 0dB internal attenuation. If you increase attenuation these numbers can go up with the attenuation but do not fry the internal attenuator.? With 30dB attenuation the tinySA will survive a +30dBm signal for a couple of seconds.? With attenuation on automatic you are perfectly safe and you can expect good measurements of you stay below +5dBm But to give the attenuation some spare I suggest to always stay below 0dBm at the input. This will allow you to use the internal attenuation most effective |

Re: tinysa
Scott hunter
thanks for the reply i found on the main site that minus 30 dbm is reasonable is preferrably below ..but it does say for a short period of time 20 dbm will be ok useing the low band of the sa..once again thanks for the info nice little annalyzer for the price..
