I ordered a Bird 43 meter online and 2 slugs they will be here Thursday
Are the PEP kits that give you 1x 2x 5x a bad thing to get? will they mess up the readings? i am guessing if calibrated they are fine.
I was thinking if i get 50w Elements that will cover 50, 100, 250w i don't need ant thing over 250
and 5w Elements will give me 5, 10, 25
And what is the deal with this Element??? I seen 3 on Ebay with holes drilled in to them
