Bird reflect watts

[bob85]

i dont know if my minivna is a less than optimally featured analyser but i do know i less than optimally understand what its telling me, especially the phase reading,
i am hoping somebody on here can help figure it out,

many folk do not own /have acces to any analyser and for one reason or another cannot gain acces directly to the feedpoint such as in my mobile installation,
having a means to remotely determine feedpoint conditions would be very nice

what do you guys need me to measure and post screenshots of to determine what it is telling me?????

why don't you just terminate the sensor directly (no feedline) with a 50 ohm load and we can go from there.

k i will do that now and post the screen in my what have i got hooked up thread

 

[bighammer]

its comming. to many things going on at home to have time drop the linner just to check it.

omg i actually learned something with a t-connector and 50ohm load :shock:

However, should you replicate these exercises using actual coaxial cables, be certain to measure the velocity factor rather than relying upon published figures. I have found reputable cables as much as 5% off the published figures.


i think i am gonna like this guy CEBIK :!:
