Features:
A Fully Programmable Amateur Radio Power Meter.

Many of these features are unique to MeterBuilder.

  • Program MB-1 to interface with up to four remote couplers with Full Scale power ranges from 1 watt to 30,000 watts in steps of 1 watt.
  • Includes a Linear Scale Crossneedle Analog Meter with Real Time response capable of tracking voice and CW signals.
  • Have multiple rigs at different locations in your shack?  With the Expansion Kit, you can add up to two additional Crossneedle meters or up to four additional single needle meters, and place an analog panel meter at each station.
  • 15 Bit effective low range Resolution.
  • MB-1 does away with the need for proprietary couplers – Use MB1’s Patent Pending Calibration Routines to reuse Existing Couplers – even Couplers in existing equipment.
  • RF Ammeter – Use MB1-s calibration features to measure RF Current (requires an RF current sensor), or use MB-1’s Patent Pending Generic Meter capability to interface to almost any analog sensor or transducer.
  • Need a high-visibility numeric readout and bar graph display for easy viewing at a distance? Attach the Hi Visibility 7-Segment LED Display modules and Hi Visibility LED Bar Graph module.
  • Auto-Max Bar Graph – Automatically adapts the Bar Graph’s full scale value to the maximum encountered signal in 1 watt steps, eliminating the need to choose from a compromise set of fixed values.
  • Six sets of backup/restore settings plus a factory default set give you single button backup and restore capability for all of your meter settings. Each backup set can give the meter an entirely different personality.
  • Menus are interrupt driven. Once a menu is selected, meter configuration changes can be made on the fly using one of the four menu buttons without disrupting normal meter operation.
  • All features are controllable directly from the front panel. No PC interface is required.
  • Pre-loaded Calibration Table for the included MB-HF1 coupler
  • Tutorial-style manual – Extensive Background Information in addition to operating instructions.
  • Steel case with blind self-clinching fasteners on case front, and threaded inserts and machine screws for case assembly.
  • Lots of other features you will find only in MB-1.
