Easy to use for basic calibration

Works very well for basic SWR calibration. Needs no power supply. Simply run your antenna into it and an antenna jumper (sold separately) to your radio.This product does not come with instructions so you will need to look up how to use it on your own.

A Great SWR Meter!

A must have tool when You are installing a CB Radio. Easy operation. After the first time You use it You will feel like a professional installer. There are several videos on YouTube explaining how to use SWR Meters and what to expect. Workman appears to have quality products at a fair price and I will look for the brand when purchasing other items. Even if You are installing a CB Radio with a built in SWR meter this is still a great tool to have. The built in SWR meters on CB Radios have been known to have accuracy issues according to the reviews I have read and the online forums I have visited. For dual CB antennas it is recommended on some sites that You should check each antenna with a single 18 foot CB coax cable with the SWR meter. However You will also need to have a separate 18 foot single CB coax cable. Just an FYI, It would seem to be easier adjusting one at a time rather than making two adjustments which may be a bit different. If You want to protect your investment and have your CB Radio work the best you need to check the SWR. High SWR will damage your CB Radio. Having the extra meter to check the output wattage is a nice feature also. I prefer purchasing on Amazon using Prime so I know when my item will arrive and I can plan my projects. Thanks again Amazon!

Cheap Cheap Cheap

With due respect to those truly happy with this product, I am puzzled how anyone can say this is a good or great product unless they are paid to write good reviews. A practice recently documented as becoming more prevalent lately. From the moment I opened the package you could tell the product was junk. The metal enclosure is thin and wasn't even closed, I had to press it closed. The plastic window over each of the meters is not secured and if you lightly press on them, they flex inward. The instructions are poor at best. One of the scales is a field strength meter and there is a supplied antenna, but the instructions don't cover how to measure field strength. As far as measuring output wattage, the instructions talk about a switch on the right which should be in the "upward" position. There is no switch on the right. There are only two switches and one is oriented above the other. One switch is the FWD and REF for taking your SWR and the other is the meter selection for reading either 10W or 100W. I've previously tested the radio at 35 watts output but this meter only reads "1" and never moves with modulation, nor when I adjust the LP or HP deadkey pots, VR13 & VR16. The poor quality is also evident when testing the SWR. While calibrating the "set", the needle jump around and is jerky. I couldn't get it to settle on the set mark, it would jump high or low. Because I was on a dummy load, the reading should be 1:1, but the needle dropped to below the 1:1 mark. I guess you get what you pay for.I don't write reviews, but this product is so bad, I'm compelled to mention it.

That it works

Warning! Don't be mislead. This is for the meter ONLY! even tho it show a jumper in the pictures. You will need to buy or make one. Plus the one I received needs one of the meters to be recalibrated. Needle does not sit on zero on the watt meter.

Good investment and product works as designed

A small investment to assure that you are getting optimal performance from your CB. Used this SWR meter to tune 3 different length antennas on my '14 Jeep Wrangler. Process to tune the antennas is very straight forward once you do it once. Some great videos on YouTube to help. Not much value after you tune but you will become more popular with your local Jeep club once they find out that you have an SWR meter and know how to use it! Quality is adequate for the price.

It’s junk.

This meter was easy to hook up, it was easy to calibrate and easy to read.The problem was that all the CB radios I connected to it all had a two watt dead keys. My Galaxy DX959 has a veritable watt adjustment from 2.5 watts to 9 watts on the dead key, I run a 100 watt amplifier on it. At full power I can hit 105 watts with 100% modulation. I also have a cobra 29 max it has a 15 watt dead key. I can swing 41watts with 100% modulation. But this meter kept showing two watts. Junk! These two radios were custom built and were tested on the bird meter.The SWR meter kept showing on both radios that I had a high match. These radios have built in SWR meters which were showing me good matches. I have a flat match on the cobra 29 And a 1.5 match on the galaxy with the amplifier turned on.I do not enjoy writing bad reviews on products but I don’t want people to waste their money on something that doesn’t work correctly. I bought this meter to check the SWR match and wattage on other radios that I own, It would show the same thing on those as well.
