Dual Channel GRAPHIC LCD SWR Meter:
Our present projects, uses dedicated
CPU and hardware to address a specific task, like SWM3
or FC3 etc.
Graphic CPU used in SWM4 is a core of
our "INFINITY" Project and it
is
developed keeping in mind that we use same CPU/LCD/Hardware for
various Purposes or Projects, saving a lot of money in
hardware.
SWM4 is a dual channel HF / VHF
SWR Meter comprises of three Units:
1. Graphic CPU and
2. An Interface Board to
connect
various types of HF/VHF Bridges: SWM4-INF-1013
3. HF/VHF Bridge
SWM4: Graphic

You may build your own
bridge or buy Simple, Dual
Scale or HFB3 or HFB5
type of HF Bridges available in kits
|

|
With Suitable
Bridge having "RF Sense" output, we also get SWR + Frequency
of the signal under test (Max. 50MHZ)
