WTB: Aries A-SWR 460 digital meter


I'm told RF can effect it??

Is it true.


I'm running one between a DX959 and TS350HD...it works well (not for sale though, sorry).

To answer your question:

I had this happen about a week ago...passed another guy on a stretch of four lane highway, his TX caused the meter to read when I passed him (probably less than 10 feet of separation). He runs a Magnum and a Fatboy 5-pill, so figure he was pushing about 600 watts right next to me? As soon as I got about 50 feet from him, things were back to normal.

This was the first and only time I have had it happen, so I wouldn't be too concerned about them being affected by errant RF.

    I will not be there but hopefully by the end of this month I will have my New tower and antennas back in the air including my M2 6M5X. The old tower and all of my antennas came down in October 2023 during a Hurricane.
