the tw2 does 50MHZ or 6 meters, 144MHZ or 2 meters, 220MHZ or 1.25 meters, 
and 440 or 70 centimeters.
I highly doubt it'll maintain any sort of accuracy outside of those 
relatively narrow bands...it might handle frequencies outside the ham bands 
a few megs, but probably nothing more than that.
The tw1 is nice because it handles frequencies right from 1.8MHZ all the way 
to 54MHZ...though the accuracy on rf power and swr drops significantly on 
6M.
So, if the tw2 is similar, it'll probably give you fairly good readings on 
the commercial vhf/uhf bands, but not anything as high as 900MHZ or 1.2GHZ.

It's too bad cheapham wants almost half again as much for the meter in 
shipping to canada...it's a really good deal at $65, but they want an 
additional $25 to ship up here.
