Actually, just yesterday I noticed several power/swr meters which cover as 
low as 2 watts full scale.  Im trying to find the page again, but think it 
was either a Yaesu or Icom page, and these were built for those units. 
Either in this weeks QST or the March issue, both of which I have been 
looking at here.
