minus-squareJosh F.linkfedilink10•2 years agoI recommend the NanoVNA, which is about $50. It’s definitely not top of the line, and it does take a bit of playing with to get used to. However it has a heck of a lot of features for the price point.
minus-square@Arrayrepairmanlink5•2 years agoI’ll second this. I opted for the more expensive version to get the larger screen and N connectors (instead of SMA) and have been very happy with it.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink5•2 years agoOhhhh type N connectors! I have to check that out.
minus-squareJosh F.linkfedilink5•2 years agoThere is also the TinySA. Which is a similar idea as the NanoVNA, but it’s for spectrum analysis instead of an antenna analysis.

minus-squareJosh F.linkfedilink3•2 years agoVery cool! I have an RTL-SDR that lets me do that too. I also have aircrack-ng on one of my Linux installs, for research purposes.
minus-squareJosh F.linkfedilink2•2 years agoIn my defense, it hasn’t been used in a long time. But the best way to learn is by doing. And I had interest in ethical hacking/penetration testing
minus-square@[email protected]OPMlinkfedilink2•2 years agoI thought it did. Ill have to ask @[email protected] to test his and see what it’s limits are.
