G'Day Michael.

The Royce 2-098 SWR/PWR meter does what is suppose to do if you can keep it calibrated correctly.

From some of the reviews I have read...keeping it calibrated is a PITA.

Good luck.

They were a decent meter back in the day. When you get it home let it set for a couple hours so the needles settle, if they are off any use a plastic aligning screwdriver and set them on the zero's. There are potentiometers inside to calibrated the meters but don't remember the spec's to do so.If they are a little off you could mess with them or just use the meter for a reference, the wattage shows average watts but should swing on SSB.
