Jan 17, 2017 at 19:22 comment added D.A.S. @Yatekii You can see the % distortion by the asymmetry of the sine +pk and -pk % difference.
Jan 16, 2017 at 16:12 comment added D.A.S. @Yatekii The VNA sees 28 Ω//(237+250)Ω =22.8 Ω not 50 Ω . Probe the output under this load for distortion not just with a 50 Ω termination your termination is 250 Ω on the unmonitored side and DUT to VNA while DUT output load is 237+28//50 Ω =255 Ω

Changed sweep range from 30 to 50 MHz.
Jan 16, 2017 at 7:39 comment added Yatekii I do not overload the amp, if you mean that. I can see the picture perfect sinewave that i feed in come out again at the oscilloscope if I terminate it with 50 Ohms.
Jan 16, 2017 at 7:27 comment added Yatekii @TonyStewart.EEsince'75 how do you mean mismatched? Like that the amp sees 250 Ohms and the VNA sees 50 Ohms, so everything sees what it expects.Well I actually did not verify there is no THD, I just assumed it since through all frequencies the amplification is constant +- statistical error. Well about compression: I mean isn't that one effect that could be responsibe for my plots? So idk but isn't that exactly what I asked about? :S Or are you talking about the AD8331 measurements?
Jan 16, 2017 at 7:19 comment added Yatekii @WhatRoughBeast Uhm of course it should be 50 MHz ...
Jan 16, 2017 at 3:43 comment added D.A.S. How did you manage to come up with this impedance mismatched R network? How did you confirm there is no THD or compression in your results that could result in false fundamental s21 response.
Jan 16, 2017 at 2:38 comment added WhatRoughBeast "I sweep only up until 30MHz" - So why do your plots go to 50 MHz?
Jan 15, 2017 at 22:04 comment added Yatekii I added the missing information and hope I didn't miss something again ... :)

added missing information on how DUT is tested
Jan 15, 2017 at 21:31 comment added Bimpelrekkie Seems you have some 1st order cut-off behavior. I see two RC networks at the output which could be responsible for this. I would also need to know all details of how you apply the input signal and measure at the output. Your VNA probably has 50 ohms inputs ?
