[TowerTalk] slightly OT - Wattmeter suggestion?

The LP-100A has an "Amp Tune" mode that can be accessed with one button 
push.  The PowerMaster is certainly a nice wattmeter -- but it is not 
designed with the accuracy (particularly at low power levels) and 
temperature tracking characteristics of the LP-100A and Alpha meters.  The 
LP-100A more closely approximates the PowerMaster in price with the Alpha 
priced for considerably more.
