IEEE Atlanta Volunteer Meeting on the RF Basics Workshop on Vector Network Analyzers (VNAs) (Workshop Dry-Run)
Background:
In preparation for our first RF Basics workshop of the year, we are doing an optional volunteer meeting at the GT ECE HIVE Makerspace on Feb. 16, 2025 at 6:00PM. The two goals of this meeting are to discuss the workshop lesson plan and familiarize ourselves with the nanoVNAs. This meeting will serve as a "dry-run" for the workshop. If you have a laptop, I would recommend bringing one as well so you can download the nanoVNA software and get used to using that software application as well.
For your perusal, here is a Google Docs document with our planned VNA activities for this workshop. Hope to see you all there!
