Anyone used or own one of these? I am seriously considering getting one especially as it has a frequency counter built in, any idea of how good or bad they are would be greatly appreciated. I was using a standard cb swr/watt/modulation meter but cooked it with my 357DX so a replacement is needed. CEFFFCEF Bob CEF703/CVC26 269 Hunter Valley 27.355 lsb.

I have one, its nice, It was off when I got it, so I sent it back and had it re-calibrated, and now its CEFGW. I like it because I can keep an eye on all 3 functions at the same time. |

Thanx for the info there Capt. Just another item i have to replace. Just hope that once i get mine it doesn't go south as it would be a pain for me to claim a warranty job. CEFFFCEF Bob CEF703/CVC26 269 Hunter Valley 27.355 lsb.

Hyperno_1979 I had a set of these and I went in and put a red led on 1st meter, white led on 2nd meter, and a blue led on the 3rd meter. It was reaaly cool at night. Mine worked perfect. I needed a more usefull one though, like a set that has a switch box. I now have a docy TC-4000-PSW. I gained a switch box and lost the freq meter. Good thing the radios have the freq meters. If you get the set your looking too get, they are sweet. Be nice to cross that one ane mine to get the switchbox and freq meter.

We have had our DOSY TFC-3001 since it first came out and LOVE it. It has been a very good meter and has always been DEAD ON with the 6 Digit Frequency Display. And the large 2-1/2" meters are easy to see and read. Lon ~ Tech808 ~ N9CEF CEF#808 ~ CEF HAM#33 ~ CVC#002 Tech808@copperelectronics.com

Well guys i finally got my new test centre. Dosy TC 3001 P. I know it hasn't got the counter but it was all that was available to me. I am so impressed. It does everything i want..except for the frequency counter...but i have the Icom to use as a backup. I cannot fault it so far, and big!!!....it's bigger than my Icom. Now my only wish is to be able to get 1/2 the stuff you blokes do over there. CEFFFCEF Bob CEF703/CVC26 I Don't Have a Life Ban From Canada...lol.
