Update PA7N miniVNA
MiniVNA - Wednesday 28 December 2011 15:59
I have made some improvements to my miniVNA software. I added measuring L, C and Q. There is also A new calculator to calculate L or C. On the DUT port you can put A known C in series with an unknown L (or vice versa) and calculate L by putting marker1 on the resonance frequency. You have resonance when Xs is almost zero and/or when there is a phase turning.More info and download

Hello Rocco,
The easiest way is your "Print Screen" key and then copy/paste in some other program like photoshop.

Hi!
I just wonder which components you have used in Delphi to make the graphics. I'm working on a similar project and is just wondering.....

Hi Karl Jan,
I use no special component for drawing. Just TBitmap and double buffered painting. This way you get a flicker free screen.
The communication with miniVNA runs in a separate thread so it won't block the user interface.

Hello Erwin PA7N,
Thank you for the nice MiniVNA program. Latest version works OK. I like especially possibility to tune also under 100 KHz even though the levels are lower of course. Anyway I can check the resonance frequencies of LC-circuits on VLF-band 10 kHz-100 kHz also with these reduced levels.
I measured following levels with W&G Level meter SPM-19 in to 50 Ohm load.
5 kHz - 53.2 dBm
10 kHz -33 dBm
20 kHz - 18.8 dBm
50 kHz -7.7 dBm
75 kHz - 6.9 dBm
100 kHz -6.2 dBm

For a first effort that software looks pretty darn good!
I'd love to see your source code, and maybe even collaborate with you on the software!

congratulations for miniVNA software.
I would like to ask you what software do you recommend to capture the screen and print it.
thanks 73 Ik6GQC Rocco
