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.
