RE: Palstar - Recommendation for a 200 Watt SWR/Wattmeter?

[Darwin, Keith]

I have a Palstar WM150 meter.  It is better / more useful than the MFJ
and Diawa meters I've had in the past.  Of course I don't think it will
go to 150 MHz.

I've spoke with Palstar about changing the power range to be 30/300
watts rather than 300/3000 but he said they tried and could not find a
scheme for maintaining the linearity of the meter to 30 MHz at low power
levels.  But it sounds like they're working on it and we may see a QRP
(well, non-killowatt) meter from them some day.
