I'm looking for a couple of the meters that are used in the Bird 43. Does anyone have any they would like to sell or know where I can get them? 73, Bob W0YVA -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/

They are available as spare parts from any authorized Bird distributor. As they are 30uA movements, I don't know of any "replacements" other than buying them from Bird. Richardson Electronics used t

Hi Peter & List, with Good question :-)! I can do some test in my Bird 43 because my unit has a mod (already done when I bought it) which is a BNC connector installed at one of the lateral slug recep

Peter wondered: Well, the element circuit appears as a simple AM detector; diode, shunt cap to gnd, with a series R into the microammeter. Therefore, would not the current be the usual square-law rel

No, Jim, you understand the question fine. I'm not too sure that's the answer I want though! With Bird replacement meters at $70a pop, I'm hoping that a rescaled conventional meter and an op amp to d

They're reasonably linear movements. As I recall about 1300 ohms with 39 mV full scale. Be sure to load the detector with 1300 ohms while making measurements because the meter movement is the bulk o

Thanks for the comment, Tom: I measured it as 1430 ohms, but I'm figuring 1400 is probably close enough. Of course, it doesn't alter the fact that readings are only guaranteed to 5% of FSD any how. 7

Peter, Your use of an op amp to buffer the current to the meter current of your choice will work fine since the meter itself is linear. Just make sure that the input of the op amp looks like 1400 ohm

Hi Peter, Henry has done this for years on their RF generators. They use a dual Bird line section with op-amp driven 100 ua meters. The meter readings are accurate and linear. No need for special sc
