The ULTIMATE $60 All-Band SWR Tool: NANO VNA | Beginner's Guide | Setup and Use for the beginner

This video goes over the Nano VNA and briefly explains what SWR is, and how to calibrate, customize, and understand the Nano VNA's display, as well as how to use it on a computer.

Calibration does not need to be done every time. There are several slots to save both the frequency range you intend to use and also the calibration for that frequency.
I saved calibrations for three radio bands, plus one more for most of the range of the device.
If you are not using presets, though, then yes, you need to calibrate every time.
Calibration works by setting a number of points - in my case, 101 - and calibrating across the selected range. A smaller range means more precision.

Great video! I just got one of these guys, looking forward to using it this weekend. Glad I found your video, it was very helpful!

HELLO, I'M A BEGINNER AND I LIKE YOUR VIDEO VERY MUCH. I HAVE A QUESTION: AFTER CALIBRATION I PRESS DOWN AND THERE I ALREADY HAVE SOME VALUES THAT I CAN'T DELETE. IS THERE ANY RESET FOR THIS, PLEASE?

Hola! Es posible analizar armónicos con NanoVna? Me harías el favor de explicarme el proceso de ser posible. Gracias!

Hi! Good question. The Nano VNA is a network analyzer (think the path the rf follows), where you need to measure the rf itself. You should check out the TinySA, which is a Spectrum Analyzer, and with an attenuator to reduce the power to safe level it can measure harmonics!

Anyone able to get NanovnaSaver to run under Windows 10 lately?

[@w1btr]

I've had it running fine on my end personally. Make sure you get it fron their official site. Was it working before? Make sure you have the right COM port too!
