Welcome, please take a few moments to review the Meter Mate software utility features. If you are looking for software to record automated antenna VSWR curve plots please visit the PowerMaster Pro page. The PowerMaster Pro VSWR plotter application is designed to record, store, print and export data of antenna system VSWR curves. Some watt meters will measure forward or reflected power but not provide the user with an antenna system SWR value without having to compute it based on the forward and reflected power readings. For accurate results this requires having two meters in line, one for high forward power readings, and the other for lower reflected power readings, or having to remove and replace meter elements to take separate forward and reflected power readings.

Meter Mate is a companion utility for your directional watt meter that allows you to calculate the SWR reading when the forward and reflected power readings are measured. In addition to calculating the antenna system SWR Meter Mate will also plot the SWR curves of all of your antennas onto graphs that may be printed out. The hard copy printed SWR curve graphs may be referred to as a baseline during future antenna system maintenance. Meter Mate is a software utility for the ham shack that calculates SWR and creates SWR curve graphs for antenna systems operating within the amateur radio bands. The printed SWR graphs can aid in antenna system maintenance by providing a hard copy of an antenna system's baseline SWR curve. Meter Mate is designed to emulate a watt meter that utilizes meter elements to measure forward and reflected power in an Amateur Radio antenna system. A meter element storage case may be opened so meter elements can be dragged and dropped into the meter sockets configuring Meter Mate for power and SWR measurements based on the meter elements selected. Forward power readings are displayed on the left side of the window. Reflected power readings are displayed on the right side of the window. When the forward and reflected power values are adjusted by the user the forward and reflected power meter needles deflect illustrating the respective power readings and the antenna system SWR is calculated then displayed in the center of the Meter Mate window. An antenna system and Amateur Radio band of operation may be selected allowing an SWR Curve Graph to be created to aid in visualizing the SWR curve of the selected antenna system. When forward power and SWR are known, the forward power level may be adjusted to match the known forward power, then the reflected power level may be adjusted until the SWR display reads the known SWR value. This will yield the reflected power level which will be indicated on the Meter Mate reflected power meter face. Key Benefits: Simple creation and printout
of SWR curve graphs.
