Re: Verification by serial number?

 

I can say that if you buy from R&L Electronics, you can absolutely be guaranteed of getting a legitimate unit. I have purchased a TinySA, a TinySA Ultra and a NanoVNA H4 from them. All are excellent. I have purchased many other things from this company, too, and I am very happy with them.

Thanks Erik. I didn't expect you to answer but it is nice to see the designer active !
I did buy from Zeenko so that much is ok. The unit is the base Ultra model. It accepted the update code from the wiki and it happily made squiggly things after ;-)? I did see the production date as Feb 24. It connected to my windows workstation no problem but I wasn't familiar enough with it to make bigger squiggly things...

I haven't tried a update and complete self test yet.? Hopefully can do that today.

I am curious about the rampant clones, did that happen after getting a company to do boards or units? I have heard quite a few stories of designs walking out the back door and getting built in the shed and sold as originals (not mentioning country but you know where).

Looking forwards to working with this.

Hi
?
I just purchased my TinySA Ultra after running across it but after reading a bit I am now paranoid as to its authenticity. I saw and understand the designer posting that he didn't want to give away how to tell the difference. Mine came in a nice TinySA black box and the unit itself looked like nice quality along with all the components that were included. Being new to this I wonder if the authenticity can be done by the serial number thru a PM so not to deseminate the information?.

I did look to see if this had been asked and answered....

Thanks!

Re: Question: Settings vs Config vs Profile

 

Everything you set in the CONFIG menu is in the Config.
Everything else is in Settings which can be stored and recalled from preset

Hello. Please clarify, what parameters are stored in:

Or, what is difference between them.?

Re: Bug report: Multiband name does not stored in bnd file.

 

I second this. Presets do store names, which is a workaround meanwhile.
Re: Bug report: Multiband name does not stored in bnd file.

 

P.S. Another issue with same feature: when disabling band element, name in menu replaced with frequencies, and name on screen became start frequency.
Bug report: Multiband name does not stored in bnd file.

Hello. I've opened issue#136 on
Not sure if github is in use.
Here is a copy:?
I created multiband config for all 8 slots and named each slot. after saving BANDS->SD, i have found, what xxx.bnd file does not have any names inside. Of course, loading bnd file back confirm this issue. All slots named as tx1,rx1,tx2,rx2, etc.
Please fix this issue and store band name in "bnd" file. Thanks!
P.S. Model TinySA Ultra+ ZS-406, firmware tinySA4_v1.4-199-gde12ba2

Re: Typed 0000 in the 'internals' menu and now the tinySA ultra freezes immediately after boot

 

Are you running the latest FW?
The only thing left is to load a very old FW (maybe the oldest Ultra FW you can find) and then load the latest FW. THis will force a reset of any preset and config data saved.

Level indicators did not turn red. I have tried this maneuver many times over the last couple of days and the behavior is as stated above in every case

Thanks! So, if i am geting around -35.6dBm from CAL output - i should be good to go?
Re: #tinysa #ultra Leveling TinySA Ultra with damaged LNA #tinysa #ultra

 

It is impossible to complete the detailed calibration process without an functional LNA as it is used in various places
However you can do a simple level calibration that should be sufficient for the 0-800 Mhz range using CONFIG/MORE/LEVEL CORRECTION/INPUT LEVEL

Sorry, forgot to mention that was the first thing i tried. Result: system boot, scroll frequency top left screen until reach max or min. Upon slider release,? freezes immediately
