    Hi all

    Do you have any recomendations for reliable HF SWR meters?
    I don't need an overkill, just need to monitor standing wave between
    the radio and the transmission coax line to check if the remote
    antenna is ok. It should work for 4-8 MHz and tx power of 150 W.
    I would appreciate specific model names.

    Hi ToMasz,

    I use a Daiwa cross needle swr & power meter and I like it. Not top, but
    close to it and certainly worth the price. The type is CN*101 and the
    range runs from 1.8 MHz up to 150 MHZ. Three power ranges: 15 watt, 150
    W and 1.5 kW. The connectors are PL type. Possibility to check avg and
    pep output/swr.

    anybody know about a company called 'daihen'? i am a chemical engineer
    at a large semiconductor plant, where we use a 13.56MHz 1KW RF
    generator that runs 24/7. the matching unit is 'daihen' which seems
    robust...
