It would work but its more of a 'RF' sniffer its use is different than that of a counter than is pluggd in line. Mark |

As Madmark says, yes it'll work. i use something very similar, a Watson FC-130, but it does depend on what you're looking to use it for. To just check whether your rig is "on frequency" or to see what frequency a radio is TXing (i.e. what is "High" on 1 radio might be "Mids" on another, or to find out what frequency PMRs are programmed to) they're ideal. They also score over the inline counters in that they're not adding an additional loss to a co-ax line by extra PL259s and another patch. BUT if you are looking at something to give a permanent display of what frequency you're on when you use something like a Superstar3900, you would be better off with a frequency display or an inline counter that fits into the co-ax. |
