Yes very nice, I have used one and I have various VNA's at work some
of which are staggeringly expensive. However they are not mine and a
large. The VNWA3 needs a PC to work which is also not convenient and
is also 10 times more expensive.

So does anyone have any experience of the devices that I asked about?

Hello all I have found 2 second hand grid dip meters.
Perhaps you have a good reason for using a dip meter (I have one), but the inexpensive and new technology VNAs run circles around a dip meter
for functionality.

I strongly agree, and DG8SAQ's VNWA 3e, sold assembled and fully
tested by SDR Kits in the UK, is a real bargain. I've had mine for
about 4 years, and love it!   It is well supported both by SDR Kits
and DG8SAQ, both of whom monitor their Yahoo Group.

I paid about $700 back then delivered to my door with calibration it,
but thanks to Brexit, it would be under $600.   I bought the
"presentation case," but don't recommend it.  Add 20% VAT where
applicable (not USA).
