NanoVNA SAA2 Version 2 Vector Network Analyzer - Ham Radio Antenna Analyzer

I am building a 3 Meter Dish Radio telescope and will be making my own anttenas for it in several bands. Hydrogen, Oxygen, Water Masser. ETC. I just figure that the wider the bandwidth of a test meter is always the best. And yes I will be needing adapters for various connectors. Bigger display is nice too.

What if the screen is blue when I turn it on?

Do not rotate the standard on the vna port connector. Hold with both hands and turn the nut. Rotating the standard wears off the gold plating of the connector. As you wear the plating off the measurements will become erratic. This applies as well for all connectors. I've used a vna for decades now with the same cal set. A newbe engineer I trained refused to take my advice and ruined a 5k cal set within a few months.

I'm getting the SMA connectors, but I still don't know whether to get the H4 or the SAA2 model. Don't sweat the case, I've got a drawer full of them and you can get them from Amazon.

The higher in frequency you go, you want SMA connector. SMA goes to 18ghz. N is only good divided by 3. I would stay with SMA.

how accurate is nanovna compare to diamond swr meter

How about this. Put it in a zip lock bag
for travel??

Whats the reason you’re calibrating your test equipment to a wide band from 100MHz to 900 MHz? Ideally you would calibrate it to a more specific band to test- HF, VHF, UHF. This is to get more accurate reading on different frequencies.

Взял такой же.

just got mine today. i am using it to learn all sorts of things about radio. i dont even have my gmrs license, or anything ham but maybe one day.

HE DIDN'T COVER USING IT WITH A PC.

I wonder how long videos would be if you had to pay-per-minute when they are posted, repeat information, blurr and BS would instantly vanish, just nice short to the point videos, people would watch them and not the long, bloated, time heavy, watch me in on the telly videos, IMO.

Comprei um desses.
Veio com defeito.
Está fora de linha.

Have you spent a lot of time on the mat?

Does it save the cal. data? Do you have to load the cal every time?

Can it measure distance to fault?

Well that is 25 minutes of my life that I will never get back again. 5 minutes of useful info padded out to 25.

So what am I suppose to do with the new VSWR meter I have just purchased. ? Put it in the scrap box with vintage parts of items that we use to swear by, days gone by ?.
Only joking. How things have changed over the years. These Nano VNA 's have changed Amateur Radio theory for the future.
Thank you for your great video for showing the variations that are available. Now for some serious antenna building. Hi. 73 de John - G0WXU.

Can this be used to watch dog on girl porn?

So explain why I would need one of these?
