Is there possibility to operate nanoVNA V2 over wifi or BT? #design

I am thinking to use wifi connection to nanVNA V2, but that would need UART to be accessible and included into firmware. Had somebody tried wireless solution?
The idea is to use RS232 to wifi bridge using ESP2866/ESP32.

No, only H / H4 / LiteVNA support this

I guess its tricky to decouple your wifi from measuring ports.. Means you will get problems when measuring around 13cm band.
I have a sark100 also known as mini 60 and added a bt dongle inside...
That was easy... I just had to wire the data lines in parallel and when using usb switching off the bt module...
That switching off was done with a mosfet.. If usb cable is plugged in it gives 5v to the fet and fet switches off the bt module... Easy
Sark 100 is only shortwave so wifi does not hurt.. But the v2 is a different beast.

It is obvious, that wifi connection can`t be used when handling wifi region, but all other areas, especially SW area would be very interesting to handle. There is MiniVNA project doing that very successfully.

H / H4 / LiteVNA have UART pins for connect external BT or WiFi modules and allow send/receive data over it.

V2 - not have free pins and not alow add (by easy way) this mod
