Now, I too am interested to see if anyone has any knowledge of doing
such thing - the procedure, equipment used, etc. IF it is something I
can do with my own - then by all means, I'll do it. I've got a
decently equipped bench.



IF - you have an accurate standard available to compare your Bird
Wattmeter against, then I see no reason you can not do a calibration on
your Bird Wattmeter Slug yourself.

The information you need is readily available.... in fact QST,
September 2006 issue, page 49, provides enough information for most hams
to figure out how to calibrate their Bird Meter's slug. The article
actually allows some rather neat features, too, if you are "slug" poor.

Damned, I'll have to see if my friend still gets QST. I don't. Thanks!
