Shopping Day Blues

Posted on September 21, 2012

My brain suddenly wanted a portable radio with an S-meter so I could wander around and see the relative strength of my part 15 radio signal.

My brain suddenly wanted a portable radio with an S-meter so I could wander around and see the relative strength of my part 15 radio signal.

But after scrolling many radios, only one has an S-meter, the Grundig Satellite 750 for $299.95.

It’s a beautiful radio with more bands than most, but it looks large to be carrying around. We live in a time when “suspicious packages” attract a firing squad.

There were many smaller radios in the $50 price range, but none of those have S-meters.

Maybe a tuner kit could be jury-rigged to operate a meter. Seem possible?
