Gary, by far the best and most accurate option to get spoken forward power,
reflected power, and SWR, is the Power Master II from Array Solutions, along
with one of Rob's Hampods. The PMII is a very useful, and accurate, meter.

Jim,
Six, two, 220 and 440. i believe that the consensus is that it isn't
terribly accurate but is reliable for seeeing SWR and improvements or
deprovements! From what I have read on the list, neither the TW1 or
TW2 is lab quality but a reliable tuning device within its limits.
