OT: Re: W2 Wattmeter 440 band accuracy?

Rose
The accuracy of a Bird Model 43 is +/- 5% of full scale.  The meter scale
is not
linear and produces the best read accuracy in the bottom portion of the
meter's
scale.

There are numerous watt meters on the market today that are more accurate.

FWIW  73!
