Check your MFJ-259B on a good dummy load. I just got done checking some loads with mine. I thought I had a bad load but found that the MFJ is only good to around 60 MHz and then it starts showing swr

Has anyone measured the current thru the meter movement on the bird 43 wattmeter? It is a 30 microamp full scale, so it says on the meter face. I have two very old ones that read low on power. I chec

Hi Peter, I saw somewhere that the meter resistance is supposed to be 1400 ohms. The ones I have measure 1399, 1406 and 1393 ohms. The 1399 ohm meter reads about 10% low with 30 microamps thru it. Th

While I appreciate your input, let's be sure we are all on the same page here. Just because a meter has a digital readout dial doesn't make it any more accurate than a regular analogue type meter. Al

The one 43 meter movement that I opened up had a 200 ohm resistor in series with the movement. That particular meter reads way low, 20 to 30% low and doesn't seem to have a sticking problem. It was r

Hi Tom, In this case with the bird 43 meter all of the meter movements are 30 microamp movements and I would guess that all of the slugs are designed to put out 30 microamps at full scale into the st

That is backwards. A choke without a gap will swing as the core saturates early. Most normal chokes do have a gap to keep the core from saturating and do not swing. You don't want a swinging choke fo

I have a drake L7 amp. How much power out do you typically get from a drake L4 or L7 amp? I have 95 watts drive and get just short of 1100 watts on 40 meters. The amp's wattmeter and a bird wattmeter

Actually they are pretty close in their specs. If you figure that the amp runs 60% efficiency on SSB and 30% carrier efficiency on AM then things work out ok. 1000 watts carrier INPUT should give aro

To just handle 100% modulation peaks on AM: It doesn't matter what the amplifier efficiency is. The carrier efficiency for good linear AM, carrier efficiency will be exactly 1/2 of the PEP efficienc

Lightning is not indifferent to less than perfect joints. A small amount of resistance in a joint can allow a large voltage rise across the joint with the high current of lightning flowing thru it. T
