[AMPS] Watt meters

[Bruce R. Knox]

Jim:

At 12:45pm EDT today, AES had at least five VFD-HF units in stock between 
Milwaukee and Vegas.  Sometimes you have to actually ask them to check 
corporate-wide stock, and according to the computer in Wickliffe, they've 
got them.  Of course, that computer could be wrong (I didn't actually call 
to verify the presence of the units at those stores.)

Parts are getting hard to come by these days, and we try hard to keep 
things in stock.  Sometimes this is difficult, especially when unexpected 
large dealer orders show up here.

In any case, I return telephone calls and e-mails (even when they come to 
me indirectly via a reflector) and if someone has an immediate need, I try 
to move things around to accommodate them whenever possible.

So, call AES.

For our business I just tried to buy a watt meter from RF Applications.  We
wanted their VFD watt meter. They have a three week or better waiting time.
Their dealers have no stock.  I don't understand how they run a business
that way, but many do.  We had the same problem when we ordered amplifiers.
No one had stock.  All quoted a long wait.  Any recommendations other than 
a
Bird for a QRO watt meter that can read peak output?
