[Milsurplus] Modifying Bird wattmeter elements.

Wed, 01 Oct 2003 01:00:10 +0000

Seems to me that I remember an article in 73 magazine many years
ago that described how to repair a Bird element.  It might also have
been in CQ, QST, or Ham Radio.  Good luck on searching the archives!

Does anyone know if its possible or has ever been attempted to open up a 
Bird watt meter element with an eye to replacing a diode or modifying to a 
different frequency band?

I have a pair of elements that are on rather esoteric bands and of little 
use to a Ham and am wondering if they could be modified to be useful.
