The 1/4 wave wizard utility is very helpful but I would like to make a recommendation to allow input of any electrical distance, at least between say...0-180 degs. I recently needed to cut RG-6 cable to 100 degrees at 3650 kHz. I used a set of 50:75 ohm minimum loss pads and O-S calibrated through them before taking measurements.
The obvious answer is to scale VNA *frequency* to 3244 kHz which then makes it 90 degs. to get the same end result but it would be nice to avoid the external math conversion and just input electrical degrees into the wizard.
Useful to anyone else?

I agree as I've started using RG-6 because I got a very good one-time price deal on quad-shield RG-6 (friend in CATV industry). And then I also like to check the results with SimSmith JAVA app.
