There is a connector on the back of the sloted line that resembles an old
style microphone connector - I have had the center pin make poor contact and
either read erratically or not at all. A meter could fail but I don't think
I have ever seen that happen.  sb

I use my Bird 43 wattmeter frequently and, until today, it has worked
perfectly. Now, for some reason, there is no meter indication when
transmitting through it to either an antenna or dummy load.  I used
different slugs, all with the same result.  I tested the slugs in
another Bird and they worked fine.

What goes wrong with these meters?  Is it a repair a can make myself
or is it best to send it back to the manufacturer?
