[VHFcontesting] VHF/UHF SWR Meter

[Joe Serocki]

Depends, good or cheap? For cheap I use the one from DC Ace, it's about
$40something. It works well to the 440 band. However, I would not keep it in
line because it has issues with power > 100 watts and has a little loss. On
the other it has a great display and works totally well!

While putting together a new Directive Systems DS224-8R antenna last night,
I realized that I lack even basic test equipment for 222mhz. 

I'd like to add an SWR/Wattmeter that covers 144/222/432, and would prefer
"N" connectors for the inputs and outputs. Can anyone recommend one that
will perform well. Low power for all bands, nothing over 300 watts. 

Thanks in advance for the advice.

73,
