Cleaning up the wiring and checking antenna SWR with a NanoVNA.

Was curious if these cheap antennas were similar to their name brand look alikes. And no, no they are not comparable lol. Stick to the name brand I guess for this style of antennas, the cheaper ones are not worth it this time.

SWR reading from a non name brand 915Mhz antenna. It's reading 1.772 which is not great
