Well, dang, how cool is that?

Just finished printing out the QRP Directional Wattmeter article by 
Lewallen, W7EL, along with the datasheets of the 3046 and the 3146 
(discontinued) to make sure it was still buildable -- it is.  I'm not 
a big fan of the TI Excalibur opamps but they obviously worked fine 
in the Tandem Match and I'm not disposed to change them.  Looks like 
the biggest work is in generating meter faces for the unit.

Thanks for the tip,
