PM1:

 

RF Measurement has been an expensive work so far the cost of measuring instruments are concerned.

Although, the other project, PM2, is hot favorite among radio amateurs for RF Measurement, I wanted something smaller & more economical for measurement of RF Signals.

In this project a quality Double Sided PTH Board is used measuring only 3cm x 10cm in size. 

Same good old AD8307 from Analog Devices is used (DIP Package) for basic RF measurement up to 500MHZ from -70dbm to +10dbm. 

However instead of using a PIC and LCD, I am using a simple LM3914 Bar Graph IC for display of db levels.
