A decent acceptable piece of equipment for any ham shack
Not quite perfect 50 ohms but close enough. SWR across most of the frequency range for extra class is 1.1 to 1. Reactants and inductance was pretty close to norm. It seems to work just fine. I would guess it's underrated in terms of power, that is you can hit it with more power than it is advertised for before it begins to get warm.

Just what I needed
It's a dummy load. If you're reading this, you already know what it's for, and what it does. The price was right, and it does what it's supposed to do.

Good
If you need a dummy load, this will work great. I'm confident in it's design.

Good dummy load...
Good dummy load... shows 1.05:1 SWR on 2m and GMRS... have not tried on 70cm or HF. DMM shows 50.76 ohms. Rated for 50 Watts, but it have put 85 Watts into it for a few seconds at a time with no issues.

Great tool for HAMS that like to experiment.
Great construction and performs like it should. Easy to install and a necessary tool for HAMS that like to experiment.

Not 50 ohms
It seems to work ok. But itโs 42 ohms.

Time Saver!
A real Time Saver in the shop that takes the guesswork out of the equation. Quality seems good and it performs as expected.

Excellent dummy load
I used the dummy load to set right the mic gain in my transceiver and it performed well. A good product.

this 50w is super from 1Mhz to 1Ghz
very nice solid construction, beautiful design, and more important the performances are higher than expected.. on the VSWR image, the pink vertical lines show amateur bands where i will use it.. edit, second purchase for a SWR of 2.0 !! used with a "T" adaptor for to have a SWR of 2.0 (25 ohms) and now able of to verify all the "SWR Meters".. my nanoVNA show a SWR of 2.1 (146 MHz) from the radio in/out connection: the path is a short cable + SWR meter + antenna cable + "T" adapter + 2 dummy loads 50 ohms 50w.. tested at 45w (VHF at 146 MHz), only one VHF/UHF SWR meter (a rare "150w analog" type available here) give a better reading (SRW = 2.0) than any other "Digital" ones (who give a SWR < 1.5).. and this "Analog" one have, at least, adjustments.. note.. when you purchase a new SWR meter, to verify it, do this test..

Seems To Be Great!
I've been testing my VHF HTs with this and haven't had a problem. I've yet to connect it to my little VHF amplifier but I don't expect anything out of the ordinary. This dummy load is pretty solid. The connector is nice, and I've been getting a 1.0 SWR on all my testing.

It's no dud
Good dummy load. 50 ohm bang on. Flat match. Well constructed. As with all electronics test before use. No problems at all would recommend.

Sturdy and works like a charm
I got this RF Dummy Load to work in my CB Radio which is very useful to do transmit tests without swr and without disturbing people on the channel. Great Product
