2. SWR meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SWR_meter

   An SWR meter for CB radio equipment. A standing wave ratio meter, SWR meter, ISWR meter (current "I" SWR), or VSWR meter (voltage SWR) measures the standing wave ratio (SWR) in a transmission line. [a] The meter indirectly measures the degree of mismatch between a transmission line and its load (usually an antenna).

3. Standing wave ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_wave_ratio

   Checking the SWR is a standard procedure in a radio station. Although the same information could be obtained by measuring the load's impedance with an impedance analyzer (or "impedance bridge"), the SWR meter is simpler and more robust for this purpose. By measuring the magnitude of the impedance mismatch at the transmitter output it reveals ...

4. Antenna analyzer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_analyzer

   An antenna analyzer measuring SWR and complex impedance of a dummy load. MFJ-269, MFJ Enterprises Inc. An antenna analyzer or in British aerial analyser (also known as a noise bridge, RX bridge, SWR analyzer, or RF analyzer) is a device used for measuring the input impedance of antenna systems in radio electronics applications.

5. Antenna tuner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_tuner

   Cross-needle SWR meter on antenna tuner. It is a common misconception that a high standing wave ratio (SWR) per se causes loss. [3] A well-adjusted ATU feeding an antenna through a low-loss line may have only a small percentage of additional loss compared with an intrinsically matched antenna, even with a high SWR (4:1, for example). [21]

6. Radio transmitter design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_transmitter_design

   A radio transmitter or just transmitter is an electronic device which produces radio waves with an antenna. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves with frequencies between about 30 Hz and 300 GHz. The transmitter itself generates a radio frequency alternating current, which is applied to the antenna. When excited by this alternating current, the ...

7. 20-meter band - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20-meter_band

   The 20-meter or 14-MHz amateur radio band is a portion of the shortwave radio spectrum, comprising frequencies stretching from 14.000 MHz to 14.350 MHz. [1] The 20-meter band is widely considered among the best for long-distance communication ( DXing ), and is one of the most popular—and crowded—during contests . [ 2 ]
