I use one of these

https://www.sdr-kits.net/index.php?route=web/pages&page_id=68_68

For frequencies below 30 MHz  a sark100 would do. Google sark100 for a
local supplier. You should also check out the miniVnwa.

Of course you could make one yourself with an MSP430, a dds oscillator and
a return loss bridge. There are plenty of Arduino designs you could clone.
Back in the day when I was using MSP430s for ham radio work I think Yannick
posted a design.

But as the previous poster suggested you really should post this question
to one of the many VNWA groups.

Good luck,

Steve
