    Using a AA-55 to Null coax.

    I think I'l give this a try but how do you short out the coax for a 1/2 wave and then cut it to measure it? Also My 55 has the Bluetooth but I'm not sure how to use it. What app works with it?

    Using a AA-55 to Null coax.

    Thanks for the reply. I do have the calibration ends. It's only a shorted, open and 50 ohm end. That's all you need. To be plan what I'm looking for is to get the resonance as close to "0" as I can. I have seen calibrating it at the meter and at the tee with and without the dummy load get you...

    Using a AA-55 to Null coax.

    Actually it's for calibrating your "reference plane" (which I believe would change if I used a tee) and I have the calibration loads you mentioned.

    Using a AA-55 to Null coax.

    I have to ask why you say that? Because calibrating is on page 32 of the manual.

    Using a AA-55 to Null coax.

    I just wanted people to see what I talking about using the tee and dummy load. So I posted that video. The guy who made the video didn't clarify if he calibrated the AA-55 and if he did at what point.

    Look at this video. The 38 minute mark relates to the AA-55.

    Using a AA-55 to Null coax.

    I'm making 1/2 wave jumpers with my Rig Expert 55 for 27mhz. My question is, I'm using a tee and a dummy load on top. Do I calibrate the 55 with just the tee on it and nothing else or do I calibrate it with the tee and the dummy load?
