Anyone using the Diawa CN-801HP cross needle meter? I just ordered one and it should be here the first of the week. It is the 2Kw model. I thought about the 3 Kw model but will never run that much power and thought about the error percentage being based on full scale so figured the 2 Kw model would be better for my use. I have been so wound up getting things together for my modified Larcan television amp for 6m that I forgot all about the fact I have nothing to measure over 200 watts with except for some RF current meters. They would work but then I would have to know the exact load impedance and calculate power from the RF current and do it the hard way. Besides not too sure how the presence of an RF ammeter inline would affect the line impedance at 50 MHz.
Anyway who has one and how do you like it? Is he peak reading function decent. I know there was an issue with the early models being inaccurate but that has supposedly been fixed.
