The Exogio Standing Wave Meter (CQV-SWR120) is designed for radio enthusiasts and technicians who need to monitor signal integrity. Its primary benefit is providing clear, direct readings of forward power on a vibrant full-color LCD display. A potential caveat is its frequency range, which is specific to certain amateur radio bands. This compact and portable meter offers real-time performance data across FM-AM-SSB frequencies from 1.8MHz to 54MHz, featuring a high standing wave alarm for immediate alerts.

The meter supports frequencies from 1.8MHz to 54MHz, covering common HF and lower VHF amateur radio bands.
It is designed to measure FM, AM, and SSB radio signals.
The meter features a high standing wave alarm function that will alert you when the SWR exceeds a critical threshold. You can also observe the SWR reading directly on the LCD display.
The meter is compact and portable, making it suitable for field use. However, ensure it is securely mounted or stored to prevent damage during mobile operation.
The meter has a 240x240 color HD display.
Yes, the meter is equipped to directly display the forward power on its LCD screen.
A standing wave occurs when reflected radio frequency energy travels back from the antenna towards the transmitter. A high standing wave ratio (SWR) indicates a poor match between the transmitter, transmission line, and antenna, which can reduce efficiency and potentially damage equipment.
Ensure the meter is properly connected to the power source. Check for any power switches or indicators on the device. Verify cable connections to the radio and antenna.
Verify that the meter is inserted correctly in the transmission line (radio -> meter -> antenna). Ensure all coaxial connections are tight and clean. Check if the meter's frequency setting, if applicable, matches the operating frequency.
This indicates a significant impedance mismatch. Check the antenna system for damage, proper tuning, or excessive cable loss. Try connecting a known good antenna to isolate the issue.
Check for loose cable connections or interference. Ensure the meter is operating within its specified frequency and power limits. Restart the device if it has a power cycle option.
