Selling my as-new Autek RF1 RF Analyst.
The new price $139.95 Asking $100. shipped in cont USA.
From the Autek Web Site:
The pocket-sized RF1 is designed to check and adjust antennas,
feedlines, and RF networks. It includes a microprocessor, A/D
converters, and a low-power "transmitter" with 4 digit frequency
readout, continuously variable from 1.2 to 35 MHz in 5 bands.
It measures RF values of true impedance (0-2000 ohms), SWR (1 to 15:1),
C (0-9999pF) and L (less than 0.04 to 300 uH). L and C are measured at
the RF frequency of interest, not at 1 KHz or 100 KHz as on other
meters. So the effects of stray capacitance, toroid parameters, and
other frequency-dependent factors are taken into account. The RF1 can
even measure the inductance of less than 1/2" (1 cm) of straight wire!
The RF1 is truly pocket size. 4.5 x 2.5 x 1.5 in. The battery pack on
other units is actually larger than the entire RF1! The RF1 runs off a
single 9 volt battery in a real battery compartment on the back with a
pushoff cover...similar to a TV remote control.A standard 9 V alkaline
battery has a life of about 5-10 hours, and can be replaced in seconds.
In addition, the unit turns itself off after about 20 minutes if no
buttons are pushed. (The auto-off feature can be disabled if desired.)
All parameters are read out digitally for highest accuracy. The RF1 is
extremely easy to use. Its large 1/2" LCD display is not washed out in
sunlight..it loves sunlight. And it can cycle between several measured
values so you can watch them together.
