Hi Tom and List
Just a few questions about the talking swr meter from Canada.  Am I correct
that there is a separate unit or units that go in the feed line and connect
to the meter?  Secondly does the unit have the home made look or is it well
constructed?  Although I guess it really doesn't matter, I want to avoid a
unit in a band-aid box or something similar.  Have you compared it with
other meters for accuracy?
Thanks
Rich
