Title: Barker & Williamson 374 Dummy/Wattmeter Question
Post by: Ed WA4NJY on May 04, 2010, 08:13:49 PM

   I am too cheap to buy a manual.  Just need to know upper frequency
limit for accuracy.
                                   thanks,

   Thanks for reply.  I checked BAMA early on, not listed.  Most Likely
this is good for 30 mcs.  I will try it on VHF this weekend against a known
good meter.

Got jpeg?

Is this the one that mated with the T-368 by any chance?

I have a B&W 334A and the manual says accuracy is 5% up to 30 meg then 10% up to 150 or so then 20% up to 230 or there abouts.  I don't think there is any difference to speak about unless the 374 did not have the glass mounted SO 239.  Also if the insulation between the center pin and shell is there it won't be listed as accurate.
