Simple Field Strength Meter Circuit

Very simple but handy circuit to have when testing adjusting fm transmitters.

Simple field strength meter circuit.

Simple field strength meter. Simple field strength meter circuit is designed by using single transistor and few easily available components. The circuit shown uses a minimum amount of components and when using the corre. Modifications include adding an amplifier for greater sensitivity including a tuned circuit so it only detects signals in a particular band or converting it into an rf wattmeter and dummy load.

It s based on one from the arrl uhf microwave projects manual volume 1 and can be used from 30 mhz to well over 2 ghz if properly constructed. Will save a lot of hassles moving the meter. This circuit is a simple field strength meter that chooses a specific frequency range. It is commonly used by model airplane builders to check whether their transmitter are really transmitting the radio signal.

This field strength meter uses an 1ma fsd ammeter dc and indicates the radio magnetic field strength between 0 to 1ma scale range. To use turn on transmitter and meter. A field strength meter is actually a simple receiver. Variable resistor on the field strength meter figure 3 the case circuit board and antennas for the field strength meter.

The circuit is a very useful for those who assemble radio transmitters especially in the tuning of the final stage for maximum range. The field strength meter is a simple and effective tool but can lead you astray if you re not careful. Simple analog field strength meter. This circuit help us to.

This simple circuit measures the strength of a radiated signal from a transmitter. Adjust c1 for peak reading. This circuit can be used to detect magnetic field strength of radio signal and common radio transmitting signal through antenna. This is a simple field strength meter that can be used to verify that you antenna is in fact radiating energy.

The field strength meter is a useful instrument in its own right but it can be made more versatile. Simple field strength meter. This circuit is another radio frequency rf field strength meter similar with our previous field strength meter circuit but with lower supply voltage only a single cell 1 5v battery. The telescoping antenna may be adjusted to its shortest length when working at 2 meters to keep the needle on the scale.

After a tuner circuit the signal is detected and fed to a micro ammeter or in this circuit a digital voltmeter dvm. It can be used from 2 meters to 160 meters. Field strength meter here is a handy field strength meter that can be used to check the strength of am radio signals. Simple field strength meter schematic.

This is particularly true when measuring vhf and uhf rubber.
