Bill,

What do these Delta units retail for?

I bet you could build a pretty nice one for ham use with little trouble. 
Just calibrate the meter with an accurate wattmeter into a 50 ohm dummy load 
using ohms law.  Good enough for ham use.

Delta is REAL proud of their equipment so I doubt there are going to be many
spares laying around. I just replaced 4 20 Amp. max Toroid + meter combos at
KTCK with ones rated for 40 A. The old ones will be kept for spares for KLIF 
or
sent to other stations within the company that might need a replacement. Not
saying "it ain't gonna happen" just don't hold your breath.


In addition, Delta generally only guarantees them up to 2 Mc.  They'll 
probably
be fiarly accurate thru 80 M. but ????
