The curiosity after reading the manual got to me and i had to get one of these to check out. We fly pro and monitor things like realtime rf when we fly. we have rf explorers which do killer job but aren't really made for rc. they don't specificaly tune one small unit with 35, 72, 433, 868, 900, 1200, 2400 qnd 5800. in fact i don't think there is a 5.8 rf explorer..... so check out what all this thing does.
The ImmersionRC RF Power Meter is a hand-held, self-contained, RF Power meter, for signals in the1MHz-8GHz range, with power levels from -50dBm to 0dBm. An external attenuator extends this rangeto allow the testing of pulsed, and CW transmitters.
It has a number of uses, including:
You can connect this to any sma transmitter directly and meaasure the power output..... test antennas, simple and intuitively. I'm sold on this thing, way easier than guessing and more complete for this job than the explorers.... two kloner thumbs up to sassen and team

The ImmersionRC RF Power Meter is a hand-held, self-contained, RF Power meter, for signals in the1MHz-8GHz range, with power levels from -50dBm to 0dBm. An external attenuator extends this rangeto allow the testing of pulsed, and CW transmitters.
It has a number of uses, including:
- - Validation of power levels emitted from CW (continuous wave) downlinks, on 1.2, 2.4, 5.8GHz
- - Validation of power levels emitted from UHF uplinks (pulsed RF, FHSS)
- - Field testing of FPV equipment
- - Antenna testing, radiation pattern measurements
- - 1MHz thru 8GHz, calibrated on common bands used for FPV/UAV
- -50dBm thru 0dBm power level without attenuator
- [Programmable attenuator setting, readout corrected
- USB, or DC power jack power source, 6V-16V
- Calibrated against traceable test equipment at > 100 frequency/power combinations.
- Standard high-quality SMA connector
- Un-attenuated VSWR: <1.5:1 below 1GHz, <1.7:1 1GHz -> 8GHz.
- Attenuated VSWR: <1.05:1 below 1GHz, <1.5:1 1GHz -> 8GHz (typical)
Note that the Attenuated VSWR depends primarily on the performance of the attenuator used. The value shown here is typical using the 30dB attenuator shipped with the meter.
