Does anyone know the movement used in the Mircronta "better" swr/power meter? The sample is pretty good, and I thought I would use it with better meters on a panel. I am guessing they are 100 micro amp or similar. Anyone know? Anyone, anyone, Buehler?

It would be helpful to have the actual model number of the swr/power meter. They made a lot of them over the years.

Thanks Pete, I am a regular Google fan, but I had no idea that would be available.
I am going to get better meters and mount it on a 2U rack panel and calibrate it against my Bird, nice little winter project.
 Have a Happy Holiday Season.
