[MLB-WIRELESS] Antenna Gain Testing?

[darrend at ndpgroup.com.au]

Only problem is u need a constant carrier source to drive em, and usually
need around 1w for most swr meters.
Anyone got a 2.4 sig-gen and power amp?

A SWR meter would be handy (I'd love a network analyser myself, but they're
megabucks :( ).  We also need a low cost, but accurate field strength meter
before we can start to think about gain testing (since antenna gain
measurements require field strength measurements).
