Re: [Repeater-Builder] Favorite power swr bridge
Sure, I have used a Telewave ... but only when one of my Bird Model 43 Wattmeters wasn't convenient. My preference? Bird Model 43 anytime. Neil - WA6KLA BTW, I have several of them too.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Favorite power swr bridge
Same here.. Some look as though they have been dragged down the highway from banging around in my truck for many years. But they are just as accurate as the newer ones that haven't a scratch. Anytime I find one for under a hundred bucks... I latch onto it. 73 Mike K5JMP www.k5jmp.us -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 04, 2006 9:35 PM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Favorite power swr bridge Sure, I have used a Telewave ... but only when one of my Bird Model 43 Wattmeters wasn't convenient.
