[FEATURE] Antenna analyzer built into Thetis #461

New Feature Request

I'm wondering whether a built-in antenna analyzer function inside Thetis might be feasible.

I admittedly have no idea how much work such a feature would entail, but I've wanted for awhile to inquire into the possibility.

Kind thanks,

Mark

There used to be a VNA program for HPSDR radios. I'm not sure I'd want that built in to thetis, if you look around you might be able to scrape that up.

Thanks, I did find this: https://openhpsdr.org/wiki/index.php?title=VNA

But that (a Vector Network Analyzer) isn't what I had in mind, rather just a simple graph that would display the measured SWR over a span of spectrum width, something like this: https://www.dj0ip.de/s/cc_images/cache_2433373335.jpg?t=1360512916
