About the App
Blue VNA, created by Dan Toma, is a smart tool designed for folks who use miniVNA Vector Network Analyzers. Whether you’re fine-tuning antennas, checking cables, or digging into radio projects, this app’s got the tools to help you get the job done efficiently. Expect an interface that’s straightforward to navigate, support for all sorts of data, and flexible ways to connect your analyzer—no fuss, just results. You can even use it on BlueStacks if you want that bigger screen experience.
App Features
-
Full miniVNA Control
Get hands-on with your miniVNA—control data collection completely, whether you’re using the standard device, Pro, or Tiny model. Plug in via USB, try wireless Bluetooth, or connect through WiFi if that’s available. -
Flexible Display Options
Flip between viewing reflection data in basic rectangular graphs or the more advanced Smith Chart style. Handy for folks who want to see measurements just the way they like. -
Customizable Frequency Settings
Pick from preset HAM bands, the full HF range (0.1–30MHz), or type in your own frequency interval. Tweak it to match whatever project you’re working on—super adaptable. -
Frequency Generator Capabilities
Use one or two signal channels (depending on your hardware), with options for sweeping or static frequencies. You’ve got control over attenuation levels, and you can fine-tune the phase between channels if you’re working with the miniVNA Pro. -
Cable Measurement Made Easy
Measure cable lengths with a two-step process for extra accuracy. Choose between meters or feet—whatever works for you. -
L, C, R, and Crystal Testing
Rapidly check coils, capacitors, and resistors, or measure quartz crystal resonance and Q values. Do it manually or let the app handle it automatically. -
Export Data in Multiple Formats
Save your results in formats like CSV, ZPLOTS, or S1P, so you can use them with other apps or keep a good record of your work. -
Essential Metrics at Your Fingertips
Check SWR, impedance (|Z|), return loss, phase, resistance, reactance, and more—all right in one place.
If you’re into antennas, cables, or any RF project, Blue VNA puts lab-grade measurements in your hands, whether you’re tinkering in the garage or running things on BlueStacks.
Switch to BlueStacks and make the most of your apps on your PC or Mac.
