Re: connecting to macOS to issue commands
If you can capture the screen you do not need other drivers.
The tinySA is connected as a serial interface and you need something to send serial commands and show the serial responses.

connecting to macOS to issue commands
Hello,
I want to connect to tinySA from macOS. I did it previously for updating a firmware (dfu-util) and now tried tinySA.py following the steps according to athome.kaashoek.com/tinySA/python/.

Re: Ultra failing tests
It looks like the RF switch on the RF port is damaged and Amazon may have sent you a return from another user. Suggest returning it for a replacement.

You could try the latest firmware, perhaps?

Re: Ultra failing tests
They're sending me the VNA I ordered and they don't want this back. So it's not really a warranty situation.
I don't see how it can be a clone, as it came 2 day shipping from amazon which the tinysa

Re: Ultra failing tests
Why? is it out of warranty ?
If still in warranty, they must accept returns
I think what Erik is suggesting is that it's failing the test because
it's a clone,? so not much you can do to "fix"

Ultra failing tests
Hello all,
I ordered a NanoVNA but amazon sent me a SAUltra on accident (which I planned on ordering too anyways)
But it fails the self test and the calibration too. I fed in the 30MHz cal signal and

Re: Attenuation for Ultra
When one KNOWS the source power AND the input level to the test instrument
that will yield a faithful rendition of the input signal, one can EASILY
determine how much attenuation is required. PERIOD.

Re: Attenuation for Ultra
Thank you Jeff for this interlude of sanity.
I was trained to start in a completely safe input level range, wide sweep, look for all the signals, calculate and note the safe maximum level (as Min

Re: Pre-sale, tinySA ULTRA plus
Eleshop no longer has the TinySa Ultra model (non-plus) in stock. From what the people there say, the old model, ZS-405, will no longer be produced and sold? For some reason, I would prefer to be able

Re: Attenuation for Ultra
I always try to keep the signal around -30dBm so that spurs aren't a
problem. The HP does have a full step attenuator so the OP's posted levels
would work for HP but would be a problem for the TinySA

Re: Attenuation for Ultra
I think you may be getting a little confused with figure and different spectrum analyzer
specs.
The Tiny SA stuff is VERY sensitive, and requires a good deal more attenuation.
The -30dbm figure is

Re: Attenuation for Ultra
QUOTE: 5W minus 40dB sounds a bit too much input level for the HP.
40 dB down from 5 watts is 4 decades in power reduction. So: 5-W > 10 dB
= 0.500 W.....0.500 -W > another 10 dB =
