Wondering if anyone else who has one has any problem with the meter being REALLY unstable? When I put the knob on to calibration, the needle doesn't want to settle, it jumps all around. If I would breathe on it, it would bounce back and forth. Should I be concerned?

Thanks,
Spydy

Well I just tried mine and it seems real smooth. I did notice that noise in the room would made the needle move some. You might try turning your mike gain all the way down when you calibrate, they are really sensitive on modulation. scrapiron

Yeah, never thought of that. I'll give it a try. It wont do it all the time, almost like it doesn't know weather it should be on cal, or swr. Do you follow me on that one?.. Anyway, thanks for the reply Scrapiron63. Have a great weekend.
