Wow! I never knew the bird was a DMM! <chuckle>
You can put down the Bird43 all you want, but check nearly every
professional radio shop and every prof tech's tool bag and likely you
will find a Bird. They work well and are quite durable riding in
pickups, helicopters, boats, snowcats, etc.
I bought my first one in 1976 (and still using it). Now own
three. Definitely more accurate RF power meters but the Bird survives.
Professionals have 1/2 wavelength test cables to ensure accurate
Reflected measurements in the field.
