Hello,
I would like to create a calibration set (open, short, load, through) using a network analyzer and an existing calibration set. The idea is to calibrate the VNA with the existing calibration set. Then, measure my "home made" calibration set with the VNA. The measured data should be accurate and can be used as a low cost calibration set with reasonable accuracy. When importing the new calibration set and calibrating the VNA with it I get weird results e.g. a non-zero, positive slope of the phase when measuring the through with which I had calibrated. Does anyone have any experience to share? I suspect that I have to manipulate the measured calibration set somehow.
Thanks.
Best regards.
