AA-230 Antenna Analyzer

RigExpert AA-230 is a powerful antenna analyzer designed for testing, checking, tuning or repairing antennas and antenna-feeder paths in 0.3 to 230 MHz range.
Graphical SWR (Standing Wave Ratio) and impedance display is a key feature of this analyzer which significantly reduces time required to put an antenna to rights.

Easy-to use measurement modes, as well as additional features such as memory storage and connection to a personal computer, make it attractive for professionals and hobbyists.
The new MultiSWR™ and SWR2Air™ modes are unique for this antenna analyzer.

The following tasks are well-accomplished by using RigExpert AA-230:
Rapid check-out of an antenna
Tuning an antenna to resonance
Comparing characteristics of an antenna before and after specific event (rain, hurricane, etc.)
Making coaxial lines or measuring their length
Cable fault location
Measuring capacitance or inductance of reactive loads
