Just make sure you keep a dummy load across the RF jack when not in use,
it protects the input, and makes a nice little reality check. Aside from
that, it's a great little tool.

It isn't precision lab gear but it will pay for itself by saving you from an
early roofing job.

An external rechargeable battery pack will keep you from wearing out the
screws or risk leakage while in storage. These things eat batteries. I use
a gel cell in a fanny pack to the external port. That way I never have to
take it out of the case.
