Mcbazel Surecom SW-114 SWR RF Field Strength Test Meter with SO-239 UHF Connector for CB Operation

Do not waste your money!

I have a 4 Watt CB and this unit says it puts out 10+ watts of power. My other meter indicates 3.9 Watts for the same radio. This makes all the functions of this meter questionable.

The little antenna for the field strength meter came apart but it was easily fixed, needed to be resoider.

It works, I think. Its hard to tell because I cant use it. When I transmit, it blows into my audio system for the computer. Ferrite chokes didnt help. I may find a way to ground the case, which might solve the problem. The coax shield should have grounded it, but its not doing any good if it is. It really should have a ground lug.

This is a good meter for Citizens Band radio, but its not good for ham radio. In the spec sheet it says not for VHF/UHF. Since this meter is bound to attract ham users, they should understand its made for CB users, and for that it does quite well.

Works good

Works great

The meter works on all HF frequencies, although the power readout is likely accurate only if you are transmitting around 27 Mhz. The screw on antenna is helpful for me when Im tracing where my 14 Mhz signal is leaking with my indoor antenna for that band. For some reason, I was shipped two of these and charged for one. I guess ill have a spare.

male connectors are too small in diameter. Also antenna fell off. China !

Great... It works fine.
