Astatic has been in this business for decades. There are other brands but if you want to buy once and be done with it then go with these people. There's nothing special about this SWR meter but if you do your own CB work Astatic is who you go to. I was big into CB 30 years ago and just recently dug my radios out of the closet to a road trip that I take about once a year. I bought the cheapest SWR meter I could find and ended up throwing it in the trash. The controls were super cheap and the meter was terribly erratic. I went back to Astatic, the same company I relied on 30 years ago, and found their reliability and build quality had not changed a bit. If your a serious HAM operator then you will want something else but if you need an SWR meter for occasional use when setting up a CB then go with a reputable brand and be done with it. I'm reasonably sure the Astatic SWR meter that I bought in the 80's and used for 10 years would still be working today if I hadn't lost it. Read full review

I've known the name Astatic for decades. Basically in good Cb microphones, that is why I chose to purchase this meter from this brand. Unfortunately, sometimes electronics falter. I simply returned this one bcuz the SWR side of the two functions did not work, the wattage did however. But it is a highly recommended meter.

I really like this little meter. It has enabledd me to test & adjust several of my antennnas. It is simple to use, and requires no battery. Sometimes, depending on the frequency, getting the needle calibrate to the "SET" mark may be extremely sensitive, but not impossible.
