Description

The Daiwa CN-901HP3 Professional Series Bench Meter is a precision SWR and power measurement instrument designed for serious amateur device operators, station builders, and RF technicians. This bench-mounted meter covers a broad frequency range from 1.8 to 200 MHz, making it ideal for HF and VHF transceiver testing, antenna tuning, amplifier performance evaluation, and general station alignment. The CN-901HP3 supports high power measurement ranges with selectable forward power scales of 30 W, 300 W, and up to 3000 W on the highest range, providing flexibility and accuracy across low to high- power transmitter systems. Featuring a distinctive cross-needle analog meter, the CN-901HP3 allows simultaneous visualization of forward and reflected power, while the standing wave ratio (SWR) is indicated at the intersection of the needles. This intuitive dual-needle display reduces guesswork and streamlines adjustments during antenna matching and system troubleshooting. The large, illuminated meter face ensures readability in various lighting conditions, and the LED lighting can be powered via a standard 13.8 VDC supply, which is included. The HP3 version enhances utility with peak envelope power (PEP) monitoring for single sideband (SSB) operation when connected to external DC power. This feature allows operators to assess true peak power performance, in addition to average power measurements, improving insight into transmitter output under real conditions. Built with a rugged metal housing and industry-standard SO-239 (UHF-female) RF connectors, the meter withstands everyday bench and field use. Package contents include the CN-901HP3 unit, DC power cable, and documentation for setup and operation. With its combination of broad frequency coverage, high power handling, intuitive cross-needle display, and professional construction, the Daiwa CN-901HP3 is an essential measurement tool for amateur device enthusiasts, club stations, and RF test environments seeking reliable SWR and power data

Very nice meter. Better than my Dosy by far.

  • Must have for the new rules and record keeping.
Purchase this to make sure that my radio station had an accurate measurement for the transmission power. Radios and applications have watt/SWR meters but I could never get matching readings. This meter does a great job accurately measuring the power out. Now I am confident that my records have accurate readings. It has very bright LEDs to illuminate the screen. You can turn them off and on but unable to dim them. They may be too bright for some situations. Reading display by mechanical means (no digital display). The PEP Peak hold is a great feature for needs. If ever need another one, I would buy this one again. ... show more

  • customer service is beyond compare.
For the most part Amazon is great. Sometimes I get a better deal from the manufacturer . But with the speed of shipping and overall customer service it is well worth it most of the time.

  • NotThe best meter
I love the cross needle concept, but I have had two of these meters, and both no longer work. Would not buy again

  • Not very accurate
Really wanted to like this unit, but it's just not accurate. Tested against 2 other meters and all read the same except for those ibit which reads high. At 300 watts output from an Ameritron AL600S, amp reads 300, mfj tuner reads 300, this reads 340. At 500 watts, this unit is almost 100 watts higher! Also, lots of plastic and not very heavy at all, so running LMR400 coax makes it not want to sit flat on any surface. The meter does look good and it would have been perfect for my aging eyesight, but what good is a meter if it doesn't read accurately? Too late to return for me, so I'll use it for a light in the radio room, that is one feature that does work well! ... show more

  • Great meter!
It is pretty accurate except on HF SSB. No meter I know of can keep up with SSB modulation and render an accurate reading. I keep it on "peak watts."
