I know you can restore custom calibrations, but is there a way to save preset configurations? I usually have all of them with custom ranges and parameters, and while it isn't really hard to recreate this, it is a bit "fiddly" using the small controls. (Squinty eyes and fat fingers here!) Maybe a dump through the serial console?

Re: Cal Function on the ULTRA
Very nice job! Any plans/way to fit it on a single page?

Re: New FW release: Waterfall now works on calculated traces
When I mentioned about the possibility of having an upper text field above the spectrum, it was a way for you to gain more space for other information, not specifically the date and time and fw version, but any other important information. Something similar to the RIGOL models.

Re: Looking for any update info on larger-screen TinySA
I had the same issue with display askew, unfortunately.

Re: Looking for any update info on larger-screen TinySA
I received my order Nov 25th. I ordered it Nov 8th from Zeenko through Alliexpress. Initial delivery date was Dec 3rd.
One minor issue was that the display was crooked and text at the edge was being cut off. But it was an easy fix by removing the cover and realigning the screen to the silkscreen 'frame' on the PCB. The display is held in place with sticky tape and easy to work with.? Everything else appears normal. Gotta love it

Re: Cal Function on the ULTRA
Hi Mike,
Some folks use these visual trees, that is true.
However, the link posted IS for the TinySA Ultra (called TinySA 4) during development. ?See, for example “LNA” and “Ultra” headings.
Take care,

Mike,
? ?I think you mean self test #3.? I believe self test #3 verifies
the level of the 30MHz calibration output and should look similar
to the following image when the CAL output is connected to RF in.
It will be helpful to Erik in troubleshooting your error if you
provide a screen shot like I did above.
- From tinySA-App you can issue the command "self test 0 3" to run
only selftest #3.
- Use the camera icon in tinySA-App to capture the screen shot.
If you have trouble capturing the screen shot, just attach a photo
showing the self test #3 failure screen.

I have been waiting for mine well over 50
years so a few more days means nothing :)

I'm a visual guy, I need boxes and lines to send

Re: New FW release: Waterfall now works on calculated traces
Next Ultra FW release will have date /time in status panel (my test Ultra has no battery) And I will not implement regional settings.  --

Re: Cal Function on the ULTRA
Yeah, sorry, it was late last night when I put it
up and forgot to reference it. That whole map is going to take
some time but I'll put it up for anyone to copy, FREE.

Hi Mike,
Both of my TinySA Ultra units pass Test #3. ?(There is no
adjustment.)
You could try a different cable to feed the Calibrate signal to
the SA input, just in case.

Re: Some Questions and Observations tinySA Ultra
Linear-Averaging is useful to measure the average power of a modulated signal or noise. ?It's done before converting the measure power into dBms. ?It's tempting to use regular averaging or video filtering by setting the video bandwidth narrow, but that doesn't give you the true average power. ?Those techniques average the dBs, which is not the same as the average power since there's a log function in the middle. ?For FCC type acceptance testing they usually want to know the average power in the adjacent channels for example, and averaging the dB level over the bandwidth is close but slightly different than the true average power.

Re: New FW release: Waterfall now works on calculated traces
There is no space above the chart, unless I squeeze the chart. Date and time can fit in the status panel, FW version info is already in status panel Extra comment across? top of chart can be considered for tinySA Ultra once the alphanumeric keyboard is added. --

Re: Measurement points versus Display points
Herb, its a bit different Hidden measurements are only inserted when step size > RBW/2. Of these measurements the maximum is used per sweep point. If step size? < RBW/2 the requested points are measured so if you select 450 points and RBW=600kHz on a 1MHz span there will be 450 measurements done which overlap a lot. --

Such as ?
Erik, ?Wander's attached screen shot showed additional information (time, date, revision) in a reserved area at the top of the tinySA Ultra screen.? If this were considered, I would hope that area was normally clear but could be used as a comment area where the user manually typed in additional information as desired. Herb
