Mini60 Antenna Analyser Getting Started Guide

Hello operators
This isn't the video I planned to release this week. I had to put that aside a day or two to help a few operators having problems getting started with the MINI60 antenna analyzer. I thought the best way to help them would be to create a tutorial in English, since the user manual leaves much room for improvement.
in this video we go through:

• Putting the MINI60 into Wireless link mode.
• Pairing the Bluetooth antenna analyzer with your Android smartphone or tablet,
• Adjusting the resonant frequency of a magloop while scanning SWR.

I hope this video finds itself useful.

FWIW the Android app that works for me is the one here: http://www.die-jetzis.de/sark100.htm
The app link I was given by CHI seller worked but the center freq would never change on the app. The one above is maintained by a fellow ham who is responsive to email and bug reports.

Also your presentation and communication skills are great. Kudos man.

 

Agreed. The link you gave is exactly the one used in my blog and video.
Also, thanks for the kindness.
That goes a long way to feed the video making machine.

Hi

I have the standard Sark 100 had it some years, that is supposed to do it hard wired but not had much success.

Yeah, better tutorials and documtation would go a long way for many of the variants.

 

Has anyone done a side by side comparison with this and the MFJ 259? Also, I am sure someone has put out an apple version right?

 

Is there an alternate link for the Mini60 software from http://www.die-jetzis.de/sark100.htm. ? For me it seems that I cant download it.

 

Where can you attach a counterpoise to this?

 

Nice explanation,
One question, when the software scans, it makes many pasages with diferent colours, .. how do i know which is the final reading of vswr
Thanks
