Hello:
I'm building a 160M only link-coupled antenna tuner. Will have a Bird
wattmeter on the input side, but would like to have a "relative power
output" indicator on the output side (600 ohm balanced line).
I've seen schematics for such devices in handbooks, but they are used on
the output of amplifiers running into 50 ohm loads, and include
provisions to measure reflected power, as well.
I'm thinking that the voltage on the 600 ohm line could be much higher
than it would be on 50 ohm line.
All I (think) I need is a voltage dropping resistor, a diode, a pot to
fine-tune the voltage and a DC meter. I just don't know the values of
each.
Anyone know where such a circuit may be found?
