Radio Check?
Need a quick radio check to make sure your VHF radio and antenna are transmitting loud and clear? With the ART-3 Antenna/Radio Tester from Shakespeare Electronics, there’s no need to hail the anchorage and hope someone responds. The pocket-sized ART-3 measures radio output power, antenna efficiency, and receiver functionality using simple switches and a dial knob. The sturdy die-cast aluminum meter displays RF output power up to 30 watts on an easily read built-in scale. The unit can either be connected to the ship’s 12-volt-DC power system or run off its internal battery.
