*** Room for both.  I have a Bird 4410a.  Multiple ranges -
can measure from QRP up to 10kW.  An Ebay deal.  Don't know
how well it's calibrated, and it doesn't do peak power.

   So I just ordered an LP100A.  With the work I've been doing with 
linear amplifiers, I am very interested in accurate power readings.
