MOST IMPORTANT!!!! TEST BEFORE USE. PRODUCT ARRIVED DAMAGED,IT WAS PACKAGED IN A PLASTIC HARD SHELL THAT AT SOME POINT PUT PRESSURE AGAINST THE TWO SWITCHES IN THE CENTER OF THE METER,WHICH IN TURN PUSHED THE BACK OF THE SWITCH APART.NOT WORTH MY TIME TO FILE A CLAIM,JUST HAPPY THAT I TRIED TO USE IT ON AN OLD TRANSMITTER FIRST AND NOT THE NEW ONES THAT I HAD JUST PURCHASED.SO I’M DOWN AN OLD RADIO,FINAL’S ARE CRISPY. IF YOU BUY THIS YOU WILL BE AHEAD TO TEST IT BEFORE USE.
A Must If You Don’t Have A CB “Guy” To Do It For You This little guy works great!! This was the first time that I have ever adjusted my SWR’s on my own. I always had my CB guy do it. Well, he retired and I was on my own so I looked for one. Came across this little guy…..It said I was off a little. With a little back and fourth with the antenna I had it looking like it was under 1! A month later I stopped into another CB shop while I was out of town and had it tune my radio. He suggested he come outside and check my SWR’s. I encouraged…
Same problem as all the rest reviews… … Same problem as all the rest reviews… limited instructions… Well some instructions, but not really in a step by step format. They are vague and you would have to understand how it works, before doing it correct. It isn’t written for a layman.
