The following scan is for a standard BNC to Binding Post adapter (source) shorted
with a number 14 gauge copper wire.
Calibration: As stated in the
AIM 4170 manual,
"For example, If you want to use a BNC-to-binding post adapter, calibrate
the short circuit with a jumper wire across the binding posts. Then remove
the wire and calibrate the open circuit condition with the adapter still
attached. This procedure cancels the stray capacitance of the adapter and
you can get accurate readings of discrete components attached to the binding
posts."
Adapter - BNC-Binding Post

Scan - Full
Band width is nearly perfect for the full scan. The
adapter gets a little inductive above 130 MHz but only to the point of 0.808
Ω for an inductance of 30 pico-henrys.
If you have any graphs that could be added to
this site please send them along. I'll post and credit your
