Does anyone use one of these or have herd anything about them?
MFJ-815C

If I get one I will get it with the wall wart that cost an extra 16.00.

The other option is the digital one with the frequency counter (MFJ-826B) but it looks a little small. I need things larger now days.

Anyone have any comments or other options I should look at?
 

Booty the meters on that look very small. Maybe 2"? Larger meters would be better.

Mike I would love one of those meters. Maybe if I can find a used one but 350.00 is up there. Still will think about it.

No comments on the 2 I posted about?

Anyone?
 
MFJ-868 GIANT WATTMETER

I use an MFJ-868 GIANT WATTMETER here for HF.It covers all of the HF & CB bands with a 2000 watt scale & is VERY EASY to read even from across the room if needed.I replaced the lights with LEDs & it's even better now.Had it checked against a BIRD & it's PRETTY CLOSE on all scales.If you can't see this one I'd suggest a TALKING WATTMETER! }:>) The WM-1 is also a GREAT meter as suggested by someone else but NOT as LARGE as the MFJ.

Is a very good meter, you can see avg power or true PEP while monitoring vswr at the same time.
 
Meh, I know you guys don't like Bird meters. But with a dual line section, I can see what I need to see. And, at any frequency that I want. It's old school, but it works good enough.

The PowerMaster - Accurate and Fast RF Power and VSWR meter


""The Array Solutions PowerMaster is an accurate, expandable RF power meter that blurs the line between station accessory and precision test equipment."
Mark Wilson, K1RO QST Review


The Array Solutions PowerMaster system isn’t simply a wattmeter; it’s an integrated station system. In my opinion, it reaches professional levels rather than being just an amateur accessory."

Chris Lorek, G4HCL - RADCOM Review




This is the meter I have-Much more accurate and will do what every station needs. Company Info

Palstar.com: PM2000A Watt Meter

If price is an issue, These palstar meters are the best BANG for your buck! VERY ACCURATE- reads exactly the same as my calibrated LP100A. I have a Palstar DL2k Dummy load that uses this same meter and I love it. Im about to purchase the mobile version of this meter.
 
I went with the Palstar 2000. It still has a small meter in it but its nice and pretty accurate.

Thank you all for the help.

BTW, I got it used. The guy that sold it to me bought it then found the LP100A on sale so bought one of those and put the Palstar on the shelve. I got it in the box and with everything.
