For those of you looking for sylii in the US, just search amazon for "plastic stylus resistive" (or ebay or any other shopping site).? There are many options out there.? I don't think you want a

What are you using the Mechanical Pencil for on the tinySA?? Does the lead work the same as a capacitive pen on the touch screen?? I never thought to try that. ? I use an iPad tablet capacitive pen

Re: Question on Attenuation Specification below "MF" frequencies . #specifications
The MF/HF/VHF, or also called the "Low", input is specified between 100kHz and 350MHz. The term MF/HF/VHF is used to distinguish with the UHF or also called "High" input, not for specification of the

Re: Attenuator Fail - Again
Steve, The 2dB stage of the attenuator is gone. If you always keep the attenuator on manual and operate it in 4dB steps (including during calibration) you will still get reliable measurements.

Re: Attenuator Fail - Again
Yes. I have a small SMD rework station. The heat can be focused, the old chip removed, and a new one reinstalled. It¡¯s like brain surgery, though. These things are originally built by robots. From:

Re: Attenuator Fail - Again
Steve, Sounds good.? Are you going to use a hot air tool to desolder the old part?? I seem to recall it has a solder connection under the chip.? If so you can use Kapton tape to mask off the other

Re: Attenuator Fail - Again
Thanks! I saw that Amazon listing but passed because the seller is in China and there were no reviews. Went with this one instead. It¡¯s eBay but the seller was in California and had a 100 percent

Re: Attenuator Fail - Again
This Amazon seller has some PE4302.? At least with Amazon if they don't show up or are fakes you easily get your money back.

While you are at it, you could build your own attenuator with the help of these links: https://tinysa.org/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Transmitters http://www.ad5x.com/images/Articles/Tap50dbRevA.pdf Good

Re: Attenuator Fail - Again
Roger, Thanks for the tip. I ran the attenuator test and I¡¯m definitely getting the steps, so there¡¯s no doubt that the attenuator has failed. The attenuator chip in my TinySA is a PE4302. It¡¯s

You can check the attenuator for damage by running an extensive attenuator test.? You should get a flat green line.? If it has steps in it one or more sections of the attenuator have failed.? If

Well, I didn¡¯t plug the TinySA into anything directly (it never touched a live circuit or an RF output) ¨C however, the only thing I can surmise is that the signal coming from the receiver¡¯s RF

Kudos to Martin. I emailed Martin at Mirfield Electronics on Monday about a problem I was having with the TinySA I had bought back in February. Less than an hour later he replied saying to send it to
