My only concern with the VNWA is in its ability to measure Topband
antenna systems where sweeps are required into the AMBC band.
I'm a VERY happy owner of the 3E model VNWA. I've made measurements on
my 160M antennas with no difficulty, but I'm out in the boonies, not
close enough to strong BC signals to have seen any issues.
As to precision of calibration loads -- after I got the VNWA, I did a
search looking for calibration loads, and quickly learned that if you
want better than 1% precision, it's easy to spend as much for the load
as for the VNWA itself!
