General Notes

Note

The MFJ-867 measures peak or average forward and reflected power as well as standing wave ratio. It is designed to operate on 144/220/440 MHz. The unit has three power scales, which are selected with the front panel switch. The high power scale measures 0-400 Watts (multiply by 0.2) forward or reflected power. This odd multiplier was used because the same meter was also used in the MFJ-868, which actually measured to 2000 watts. MFJ chose to save a little money by not having to print a separate meter scale for the 867. The mid power scale measures 0-200 Watts forward and reflected power. The low power scale measures 0-20 Watts forward and reflected power. A power saver circuit turns the meter on only when RF power is being measured. The MFJ-867 utilizes a large illuminated 6.5-inch single-needle meter to read the SWR from 1:1 to ∞. Basic features • Easy-to-Read Scales: Large numbers and pickets make reading a breeze. • Power Saver Circuit: Meter turns on only when transmitting. • Three Power Scales: 20/200/400(multiply by .2) Watt power scales. • Forward and Reflected: Measures forward power and reflected power. • Peak or Average Reading: Measures Peak or Average power. • Power or SWR: Measures Power and SWR. • Easy-to-Set SWR: Easy set for accurate SWR measurements. • Frequency Range: 144-440 MHz. • Input/Output Impedance: 50 Ohms.
