I am using the following steps to measure Low VSWR,
1. Move the probe along the slotted line to get maximum deflection in
VSWR meter.
2. Adjust the VSWR meter gain control knob or variable attenuator
until the meter indicates 1.0
on normal VSWR scale.
3. Keep all the control knob as it is move the probe to next minimum
position.
4. Read the VSWR on scale.
Can anybody explain, why we are using first three steps instead
of measuring direct VSWR reading from VSWR meter ?
