Dear MikeN:

I have an antique Omega pocket watch which needs adjustment. I have a 24"
pipe wrench, an 8 pound sledge hammer and a blowtorch. What's the simplest
method for me to adjust the movement for best accuracy?


See the problem? Mismatch between job and tools. You need a UHF bridge,
and a means to calibrate it. Or a network analyzer. And some reference
standards. Unfortunately, you do not have the tools to build the tools you
need to do the job. Any universities or electronics labs with Ham employees
nearby? Might be your best bet.

My question

What is the simplest method for me to measure the antenna resonant
frequency (X=0) and antenna resistance (at resonance) of a small 70 cm
yagi, to a reasonable level of accuracy.

I have a counter and GDO which work at 70 cm, and can homebrew
anything else required.

Thanks in anticipation

MikeN ZL1BNB
