Re: Quick general questions on persisting the calibration data
Lutz,
The purpose of the calibration? indeed to remove the jump in the signal when it switches to harmonic mode.
A jump in the noise is unavoidable as the signal path loss increases due to harmonic

Re: Quick general questions on persisting the calibration data
Erik, thanks again. I do have one more question, regarding the harmonic mixing part above 5.34GHz. I used the NanoVNA's generator's third harmonic (of 1.78GHz) at around -40dBm to run the calibration

Re: Ham bands
Great idea. That’s what they did with that feature on the SARK110.

Physical size?
There’s a picture of the various tinySAs on the wiki that implies that the Ultra+ is physically larger than the Ultra. If it is, what are its dimensions? I can’t find them in the specs.

Re: Attenuation for Ultra
Yes, installation of a 40 dB attenuator and starting with 5-watts or +37
dBm (yes, your math is correct), will yield +37 dBm minus 40 dB = -3 dBm or
0.0005 watts.
The "safe" input level Eric states

Re: Attenuation for Ultra
OK, really quick...
Your math is correct.
+37dBm - 40dB= -3dBm
To get to -25dBm --> you need +37 dBm - 62dB = -25 dBm

Re: Attenuation for Ultra
This all makes sense. So what I do not understand is how with a 5w
transmitter - which (if my math is right) is 37dbm, a 40db attenuator gets
you to the minimum -25dbm safety threshold for the

Your confusion may come from not understanding the dB and logarithms

Attenuation for Ultra
I've been reading the responses to my own thread on here and watching
several YouTube videos and still feel like I do not have a good handle on
the attenuation required.
In the videos, I have seen

Re: Ham bands
They are correct for ITU Region 1, which is expected since Erik lives in that region. We are in Region 2.

Re: Ham bands
Hi Erik,
I just noticed that the Ham Band shading is incorrect for three of the USA band allocations. (I didn't check bands above 800MHz.)
The 75/80 Meter band is 3.5 MHz - *4.0* MHz, but is only

Re: Quick general questions on persisting the calibration data
Thank you Erik.
Regarding the level calibration for the higher part >5.34GHz, would a square signal with lower fundamental (e.g. 1.78GHz) containing a strong harmonic at exactly 5.34GHz be sufficient,
