I have just purchased a LP-100A meter and really like it in my shack. Your video on this meter taught me much more information about the use of the meter in the shack and lab settings. Thank you for your time in demo and set up. Paul
I have watched you use this many times and had no luck finding where to purchase it until now. I thank you for the in depth review of this product, I will be adding it to my shack. Also, I really enjoy your work, I am an old point to point builder from the early 60's and I am learning so much from you about SMD trouble shooting and repair. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Peter, I recently ordered an LP-100A, Larry has about a three week backlog, based on world conditions, not him. I watched your video from beginning to the end and enjoyed so much how you presented all the benefits, your enthusiasm for the product was wonderful to hear, thank you. 73's Peter W2JV
I have the LP100A and I agree with this video. It is one of the best meters you can have and is very very accurate. I love seeing that my power out and SWR is within what it should be. It is one meter that can do almost all. It is pricey but well worth the money. Looking forward to getting the N8LP LPPAN2 and using it with my Kenwood TS830. It will bring my hyrbrid into the modern world.
Peter: You do make wonderful videos & explain your repair techniques exceptionally well. Your videos are a great aid to your viewers, & consequently you have many followers. My opinion is that you talk too much about things that are self evident, or unimportant, rather than getting to the point. Please understand that this is my opinion, & others may very much enjoy your narration. It is meant as an observation, & definitely NOT a criticism. Thank you for your many helpful & always educational videos.
all u have to do to find the sign of the reactance is to tune up the band or down, if the reactance is inductive, the value will increase as frequency is increased
Great discussion on a most interesting product. I have one question, they offer an option Dual Coupler. What would be the purpose of this second input? They also show an antenna pattern graph. How can you create a graph 0-360 degrees with only one fixed input/location. Thanks Rick
+Richard Carl Hi Richard, thanks for popping in. Well the first answer is simply if you have two rigs in you shack and you want control both without always change the coax. For the second question I would advise you to contact Lary N8LP from www.telepostinc.com/n8lp.html#top He will response very quick . Give him my best regards 73 Peter
I recently purchased this meter for my ham shack. I use it before my antenna tuner, and when I use my tuner I can get the swr down to zero according to the meter in the tuner, but I can tune down much farther if I watch the LP100a as it is that more sensitive, and accurate. Not cheap for sure, but well worth the cost to me. AJ6O
One of life's great joys for me is opening a box containing new stuff. For me, it can only be beaten by opening boxes contain unknown items sent by another person. Probably a hangover from when I was a child at Christmas.
Throw those analog meters in the trash or give them to a CBer. I have a friend who has the LP-100A and I drool over the prospects of owning one. Excellent software and well built.I am extremely impressed with this review.I really like my 801HP3 , but after this video I see the shortcomings of an analog meter. Thanks for a very thorough and insightful video!! More hams need to watch the TRX videos
Satellite_Guy Hi, I did know that there are problems with this analogue meters, but that the tolerance is that huge is really embarrassing. The manufactures should not call them PEP meters. Hope you will receive your LP-100A soon. Thanks for your comment :-) 73's
+Rafael Moreno Hi Rafael, you can order it directly from Larry's web site. www.telepostinc.com/ Tell him that you have seen my video. Thanks for stopping by 73
***** Hi Dennis, well your Bird 43 is still industries standard! Especially the 43P version and the best is that the PEP extension can be simply added to the 43 model. Great Meter as well! 73's
I don't understand the purpose of this expensive meter? All you ever use it for is a common wattmeter, couldn't you use a cheaper one for that instead?
I love mine, got it almost new for $400 and a few dollars for shipping.. Anything else other than this is rubbish, if you want to have a calibrated meter this is the one de Ei2iP
+PY5AB Hi Antonio, I presume that you are most likely looking for the vendor of this product?? See this link for more information www.telepostinc.com/lp100.html my name is by the way Peter. 73 and nice season holiday.
+TRXBench Hi Peter, I whant to know what's your callsign. Tnx for video, this Wattmeter is my dream but my pocket is small.... and the tax collecting fury of the Brazilian government doubled the import price. I wishes to u all the best also. 73, Toni PY5AB.

HaHa ja Rolf man tut was man nicht kann. Schön das dir meine Videos gfallen...
During the video, I was sensing you were holding back on how you really felt about the LP-100a.
Don’t hold back, tell us what you REALLY think! 😄👍🏻
your sensor must be faulty :-)
@@TRXLab I was joking, of course. 😏
@@waynebud462 lol me too

It appears you have to obtain an SO239 to BNC adaptor, to use this wattmeter??

+Rafael Moreno Hi Rafale, thanks for your feed-back. Yes Larry is a very kind Person. Have fun with your new LP-100. 73

Hi Curtis, yes the LP-100 is almost lab quality and I agree it is worth the money! Thanks for watching 73
good day will it show rms average reading on the 10,000 watt slug?

InTheNameOfJustice Yeah that is absolutely true. I am also always exited....
I’ve just ordered the array power master 2…I’m abit confused as it does not have pep and avg settings like this
as long you don't use SSB no issue...

You sound a lot like
Peter Lorre
Spend to much time talking about nothing. Stop with all the stickers and junk. Get into the meter operation
Too bad the display is a shit
you talk to slow, and go to slow, like you are talking to children.
You can adjust the play back speed. Simply adjust it to 2x That's it. 73
