Well, sounds like that "meter like guage" was something homemade. Just use the meter on the radio, I know plenty of people that use the meter on the radio to track people down ( don't know why people find it fun) and it works fine. Watch the meter on the radio, when the signal gets higher you'll know your close. When the signal gets lower, your going the wrong direction. Look for antennas too! haha ...just common sense. Don't need anything high tech. |

Press : Sounds like you're talking about a field strength meter which you can purchase for $19.95 at any radio electronics store.I posted this a couple days ago but it never came up so here it is again. |
