Mcbazel Surecom SW-102 Digital VHF/UHF Antenna Power & SWR Meter

הקדמה

The Mcbazel Surecom SW-102 Digital VHF/UHF Antenna Power & SWR Meter is a compact and versatile instrument designed for radio enthusiasts and professionals. It provides direct digital readout of forward and reflected power, along with Standing Wave Ratio (SWR), without the need for calibration. This meter is essential for optimizing antenna systems within the VHF (144-148MHz) and UHF (430-450MHz) amateur radio bands, supporting frequencies from 125MHz to 525MHz. It features a low insertion loss design, allowing for permanent connection, and comes with N-Type base connectors, including adapters for SO239.

2. Connecting to Radio and Antenna:
   • Identify the "TX" port on the meter (for connection to your radio) and the "ANT" port (for connection to your antenna or dummy load).
   • Connect your radio's antenna output to the "TX" port of the SW-102 meter.
   • Connect your antenna or a dummy load to the "ANT" port of the SW-102 meter.
   • Use the provided N-Type to SO239 adapters if your radio or antenna uses SO239 connectors. For other connector types (e.g., BNC, SMA, PL-259, TNC), additional third-party adapters are required and not included.

3. Optimal Measurement Conditions: For the best SWR measurement results, it is recommended to use a metal sheet (not included) as a ground plane, especially with certain antenna types. Avoid placing objects nearby or horizontally during testing, as this can affect the accuracy of the measurements.
