Well, let's say that in most times one port VIA would be enough, to tune an antenna basically, and some other minor jobs. But some times you need to phase a stack of Yagis, or even a four-square vert

Good Day, I am interesting in a graphical antenna analyzer and considering the Rig Expert AA-30/54 or MFJ-226. If anyone has any experience with these, I would appreciate any comments.  Thanks & 73,G

Hi Garry, Rig Expert is far far better. Quality and features. But, if you can afford it, you can go to a mighty KC901, a two ports true vectorial VNA: http://www.deepace.net/shop/kc901s-9khz4ghz-hand

The best choice depends on your intended use for the instrument. Do you really need a vector network analyzer? Much as I love lab-quality instruments, I don't design antennas, filters, matching netwo

The FA-VA5 goes to 600 MHz, the VNWA-3EC to 500 MHz with 90 dB dynamic range, and to 1.3GHz with 50 dB dynamic range. I've used the VNWA-3EC to tune 1.2GHz antennas. 73, Jim K9YC ____________________

You need the driver, download from SDRKits.  There are some details of the installation that I don't remember. Ask them for help if you need it. They are very responsive. You also need the VNWA softw
