Directional Power Meter Manual Pg12


Chuck Carpenter
 

On page 12, the bottom paragraphs, line 3

The text for the 3rd power calculation example

"Po = ((Vpk x 0.707) + 0.3) divided by Rload"

Should be:

Po = ((Vpk x 0.707) + 0.3)^2 divided by Rload**

Converts Vpk to Vrms, squares the result and divides it by Rload, typically 50 Ohms

Basically, the same result as the line 2 calculation only more impressive.



**The Editor/Proof Reader team, 'me', missed it.? Two years later, it jumped right off the page... ;-)
