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 it reads way low. My old SA reads the cal signal fine. When I connect an antenna, the FM broadcast band is faint to say the least. Any tips?
?


 

Return to amazon

They don't want it back so I'd like to fix it if possible


 


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" it


Cheers

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 site lists as a good seller. Don't the fakes also have firmware that falsely shows the self-test as passing anyways??


 


OK? cool? :)?

You could try the latest firmware, perhaps?

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.


 

If they don't want it back you can try to replace the switch
