Surprisingly Accurate 
|
Time owned: 6 to 12 months

I bought this meter as an extra that I could take with me when doing antenna work or repairs on the road. I have Bird and Coaxial Dynamics meters but they are used mainly on the bench at home. Given the low cost of this meter, I was expecting it to be only modestly accurate. I was surprised that it is fairly close to my more expensive meters across its fairly broad range. While I would not use it for highly critical measurements, it is more than adequate for most amateur uses. For the price, you can't beat it. We'll see how it holds up over time.

WORKS GREAT FOR ME 
|
Time owned: more than 12 months
|
|
I was a little leery when I first bought this meter. But I am on a fixed income being retired I could not beat the price. So I gave it a try. It works great for me. The construction is very good. Very solid. It looks like a Comet/NGC meter. It is very easy to use. For what I use it for it seemed to be accurate enough. I have just used it to check simple SWR/RF out put on my 2M/1 1/4M and 70CM radios. It worked good enough. I know it is made in China, but so are the Yaesu HTs now. You will not go wrong with this one. If you are on a budget and cannot afford a Bird meter, this meter will work just fine for you. Thanks in advance. 73, Stu de W8STU
