Antenna tuning with nanoVNA

  • NOAA-15 frequency 137.62
  • The NOAA satellites have radio antennas that transmit the data back to Earth on a frequency in the 137 MHz range.
  • To minimise interference between satellites, each NOAA satellite transmits on a different frequency within the 137 MHz range
  • Calibrate nanoVNA
