Hardy,

I have an AA-30. It's been with me up and down the tower, in the field 
and on two big DXpeditions in the far Pacific. Easy to use and adjust 
and very convenient to carry.

Normally I use it for readings. On occasion, I do connect it to a laptop 
to record readings for baseline comparison at a later date. I now use 
this as my go to SWR meter and have gotten rid of everything else except 
an AIM 4170 which offers more detail but requires a PC.

I won this one at Dayton about 5 years ago. If I were buying one now, I 
might get a higher end model but the AA-30 works fine for me.
