How to Use :
The S.W.R.meter is connected between the radio (TX) and the antenna, as close as possible to the transceiver (use a cable of max. 40 cm like Test Jumper.
1)Check all connections.
2)Press the key of the microphone PTT to pass into the transmission and keep it in this position.
3)Read data of S.W.R. / Forward watt / Reflected watt
What is a high SWR reading?
1.5 -> 2.0. Your antenna is acceptably tuned and should work fine.
2.0 -> 3.0. Your SWR reading is slightly high, it shouldn't damage your radio, but you should try and tune your antenna to bring down your SWR reading.
Above 3.0 or more. Your antenna isn't tuned acceptably and could damage your radio.
