Check out my E-Meter at www.telepostinc.com/n8lp.html

I am getting very close to offering a kit version of it. A comprehensive 
article will also be published in QEX in the near future if want to 
homebrew your own. They accepted my manuscript a few weeks ago, but 
haven't given me the publication date yet. A prototype of the E-Meter is 
at a friend's shop as we speak for verification of results... I have a 
pretty good arsenal of test equipment, but not nearly as impressive as his.

The meter will display power accurately from about -17 dBm (.02 
milliwatt) to+63 dBm (2000W) in four selectable scales, and SWR 
accurately down to +10 dBm (10 milliwatt)... this is about the 
theoretical limit one can measure SWR of a decent antenna due to 
external signals typically present on the antenna.
