Dave, I don't mean to be 'picky' but doing a web search for "Allen Variances" yielded "Allan", so who is right? (yeah, techs like me tend to be that way, fun intended) Mike C. Sand Mtn GA

Yes, in those days we were flying Cs clocks even on commercial flights. Fun days. In the lab I was doing Allen Variances between Cs and Rb. We were finally convinced with all the flights that we had

Re: tinySA : most accurate power level
If you read the specifications for any of the TINYSAs, Eric recommends measurements to remain faithful to the input signal (no compression or aliasing) stay less than -26 dBm. I usually shoot for -30

Re: tinySA : most accurate power level
For best level accuracy, keep the level AFTER the internal attenuator below -25 dBm, preferably below -35 dBm. Below -35 dBm the accuracy is level independent as long as you stay 6 dB above the noise

Thanks Stan - that fixed it. Correct driver now installed.

Re: tinySA : most accurate power level
Erik, thank you for your rapid reply. Is there a sweet spot (power level range) where the tinySA is most accurate? Reflecting on the situation:? I only need to know a power range of 20-30dB where

Re: Can't update firmware
PS; Or you are trying to load your NanoVNA H or H4 using the software for updating the TyniSA? You either need the FW for the TyniSA instead of the NanoVNA or you need the correct software to update

Can't update firmware
Just purchased a tinySA ultra from the Zeenko store, so it's genuine, and I can't upgrade the firmware. 1. Running on Windows 11 2. Have installed STM32 drivers 3. When I go into DFU mode I see a

We had to do that here at the University of Illinois, too. Back in the early 70's we were doing some ionospheric propagation studies along with the University of Houston. We flew two cesium clocks to

I'm building a 1kW+ HF power amplifier.? I've a 2kW homebrew dummy-load with a 60dB PAD (measured with a nanoVNA it's around 60db flat to 100MHz). With an IC7300 at 100% FM, 7.2MHz, the tinySA reads

Which is why I wrote it as "milliHertz". MilliHertz just would not be right. :) "W0LEV via groups.io" <davearea51a@...> wrote: -- 73 -Jim NU0C

Yes. mHz is needed to "compete" in the FMTs. However, we should use correct abbreviations for the units. Having once been professionally involved in precision timekeeping in the early days of GPS,

We all like to poke fun about this but if you ever participate in the FMT you actually do need milliHertz precision to get into the "green box". "W0LEV via groups.io"
