BTW, how do you know the accuracy of your homebrew SWR meter?


I have a bunch of 50W 600 ohm non-inductive resistors that I use
for calibration purposes. And I really don't know the accuracy.
An SWR of 20:1 looks the same as an SWR of 25:1 on the scale.
I have an upper and lower acceptable limit to the SWRs with the
matching method I use. The SWR meter tells me if the SWR is
outside of that acceptable range.
