Re: Hsu
VA2NA did an extensive IMD write up on the Amptec LA4000, back on Oct 22, 2017. It's Item #15, under 'files' on this site. Uses 2 x FU-728's....and runs 4 kw output. Appears to be a clone of a manual

Re: W6WRT SK
I talked with Bill a few times and even bought some of the stuff he no longer had the time for. I hated to see he's gone. There are fewer and fewer of the knowledgeable left and few with any knowledge

Re: True RMS AC Ammeters ?
Trus rms voltmeters work really good with ratty waveforms. They will handle anything you throw at em...including sawtooth, square waves, and loads of harmonics. True rms ac ammeters, good ones, have

Re: True RMS AC Ammeters ?
What precision do you want? For what you probably want, I would think a true RMS volt meter of a known accuracy within a couple % and a known resistance should suffice as measuring the calibration,

Re: True RMS AC Ammeters ?
A thermocouple meter will measure true RMS regardless of the waveform. Old school stuff.

True RMS AC Ammeters ?
If you look at the distorted waveform coming out of the FWB, FWCT, FWD, it typ consists of high, peak pulsed currents.... when a C filter is used. Like 15-24A on peaks....and only 1.5 to 1.7 msecs in
