The same directly and Ohms, and reactive. As for power, the Bird samples a vector sum of line current and line voltage with its directional coupler. A properly calibrated Bird 43 meter, when used wi

Just as I told and You confirmed, the real power is not directly measured by a bird wattmeter when load isn't 50 Ohms. The real power (when a reflected power is existing) is only obtainable by subtr

is, but power The thermocouple meter reads only one vector, current. It does not measure voltage or phase. You have only one scalar measurement and power is a function of the square of that reading.

Bird 43 is a useful instrument, and I agree with your points about directional coupler meters advantages. Sensors, diodes or thermocouples (bolometers) have instead pros and cons. It remains the fact
