Hi Greg,

That's great, thanks. All we need now is for Dave to get hold of the Hermes interface requirements.

I believe that the interface specification is changing. And the new interface requirements are about to be released. Any idea when.

To look at the features that myVNA has. Go to the user manual in the following link.

http://www.g8kbb.co.uk/html/myvna.html

Features like TDR. Matching tool. RF VI measurements. Crystal motion parameter measurements where the results are placed into a Excel file. To allow you to sort/select crystal for your crystal filter design. And heaps more. Refer to the user manual.

To have this for Hermes/Hermes Lite is a winer. Dave has put so much work into myVNA, we are so lucky. Thanks Dave.

Regards,

Roderick Wall, vk3yc.

>> I am also a member of the Hermes Lite group. On the Hermes Lite group there had been some discussion about VNA software for Hermes Lite. Dave Roberts G8KBB the author of myVNA software has indicated that he is willing to write a interface for Hermes/Hermes Lite. And to modify myVNA to also work with one detector. It was suggested that the interface should 1st be written for Hermes as Hermes Lite is not ready for duplex operation.

>> Dave needs the interface requirements for Hermes. Is someone able to supply this information. Also there would be a requirement for someone to test the VNA operation. I don't have a Hermes as I have been waiting for Hermes Lite to be developed. So I am not able to help. Is someone able to work with Dave to test the interface.
