Introduction

VNA Master MS2024A/MS2026A are the most ultra-portable VNAs on the market. They are designed to make accurate vector corrected 1-Port and 1-path 2-Port magnitude and phase measurements from 2 MHz to 4 GHz (MS2024A) and 2 MHz to 6 GHz (MS2026A). VNA Master’s light weight

6.4 lbs) and three hour battery life time provide you with

(

he flexibility needed to make VNA measurements anywhere.
