Many thanks Michael and all others who responded to my query. I appreciate it. It is confirmed that Model 440 works in HF range, not VHF / UHF.

Does anyone have any information on it especially its operating frequency range? I would like to find out if it can be used at 2m. I tried to use it but the power and SWR readings didn’t make sense. So it is possible that it is not for 2m. After mostly unsuccessful Google search, I found a mention of 1.8 ~ 54 MHz frequency range. It would be nice if someone can confirm that. I would greatly appreciate it.
