Hi, I will be brief on the answer, but you will find a lot of information in this forum in the wiki and files folders. When you log in to the forum, you will find it in the menu on the left side of th

Alan, The best BNC 50 ohm load I have is actually the Tektronix 011-0059-02 10x (20dB) attenuator. It works both as a male and female load, with on the order of 40dB return loss (best if the unused en

Yes for HF VSWR and RL measurements you won't need to use the cal data. Just use the nanoVNA stand-alone. Roger

If just doing very basic antenna work (ie SWR and Smith Chart traces) on HF antennas in the 10 to 40 meter (and maybe 60 and 80) range, would the mentioned BNC SOLs from sdr-kits be usable just "as is

You can make your own cal. standards for less than $10. That has been presented here with pictures several times. Check the archives. CAUTION: The 50-ohm terminations sold into the "digital world" are

These are not too expensive and come with cal data. But you will need to use them with NanoVNA Saver on your PC because it is the only program with cal data input. https://www.sdr-kits.net/BNC-3pc-Cal

It is relatively easy to make female BNC SOLT that work for HF, VHF and maybe UHF using identical chassis mount jacks (that are cutoff on the rear insulator/pin) to get a consistent physical reference

At least i know about calibration standards. Source I know about (well, 15 years ago) was the H-P Instrument Division (now part of Agilent). We had a kit with SOL (short, open, 50 ohm load) in SMA con

Does anybody know of a source for a BNC SOLT kit which is both accurate and affordable? Google/eBay show that some are available, but the prices run from hundreds to thousands of dollars. My reason fo

At HF the Anritsu tee is likely not going to be that much better a cal as the supplied SOL. To test it cal with the ANritsu Tee and then measure the supplies SOL. Likely any difference you see will be

You want to calibrate with as nearly to test jig configuration as possible. For example, when measuring with alligator clips, I calibrate using alligator clips.

I have access to an Anritsu VNA at my job, and with it we have the calibration "tee" which has open, short and load using N connectors. Would I make more accurate measurements using this for calibrati
