General Notes

Note

The CMX series features a cross-needle meter that simultaneously displays forward power, reflected power, and VSWR. The system is split into two parts: a compact meter section for easy viewing and a separate RF sensor designed with an extremely low-loss circuit. Illuminated Display: The front panel features clear illumination for easy reading when connected to a 13.8V DC power supply. Voltage Monitoring: Includes a dedicated button to check the voltage of batteries or the power supply while in operation. Flexible Mounting: The meter can be mounted using an arm-stand screw or the included magic tapes. CMX-1 CMX-2 CMX-3 Frequency Range 1.8–60 MHz 1.8–200 MHz 140–525 MHz Measurable Power 0–2 KW 0–200 W 0–200 W Power Ranges 30/300/2KW 20/50/200W 20/50/200W Input Loss < 0.2 dB < 0.2 dB < 0.3 dB Min. SWR Power Approx. 6W Approx. 4W Approx. 4W Continuous Power Limits (FM/CW/RTTY) To avoid damaging the unit during continuous modes (FM, AM, CW, FAX, RTTY), the maximum power levels are reduced: CMX-1: 1.2 KW. CMX-2: 150W (1.8–30MHz); 120W (Over 50MHz). CMX-3: 150W (140–220MHz); 120W (Over 400MHz). General Specifications Impedance: 50 ohms Power Accuracy: 10%. Power Requirements: DC 11V–15V, 350mA. Connectors: SO-239
