Concerning _Antenna_, Bruce Clark said to Troy H. Cheek in SCANRADIO:

Um, the meters I've used, the meter goes at the end of the cable, then the
radio is attached to the other side of the meter with an additional piece of
cable. I transmit through the meter to measure the SWR. Is there some other
type of meter that takes the place of the radio entirely?
... I do whatever the voices in my head tell me to do...
