Certainly one of the NanoVNA's. They are cheaper than anything but the very cheapest CB VSWR meters, can tell you ALL about your antenna, and they can also be used as a signal source, a filter analyzer, a crystal characterizer, an inductance meter, a capacitor meter, a TDR (Time Domain Reflectometer to measure coax loss, locate shorts, opens, or impedance mismatch locations in transmission lines, and more. I suspect the market for antenna analyzers has already dried up completely with anyone who reads or watches UA-cam videos.
Dr. Fong, thank you for this very informative video. 73 W2DWL
thanks for the video. I don't see 36 inches anywhere for VHF?
Awsome documentary video. Keep up good work. 73's de Your Friend Uncle Guenter
Imagine two masts ten feet apart. Mount your dipole on one and run the coax down the other.
How does a 1 1/4 UHF and 4 1/4 stub VHF account for a 1/4 wave each?
Dr Fong, great video. Which analyzer do you recommend for your students?
