This may not be what he wants. Airband radio's have an output of only 4 -
10W. That may not be enough to get full-scale reference on the SWR meter,
making the SWR reading unreliable.


Point taken, but reflected power measurements are always on the low
side. This one would do as well, has lots more features, but with a
price penality and loss of forward power measurement:
