- What will happen if you use the wrong frequency range slug in a bird 43 meter? Specifically, I have a legal limit 2m Amplifier and I have a 2500D slug (200-500 MHz @ 2.5KW). If I use this slug to mea

- Will it damage the slug or the meter? No Will the readings be anywhere close to accurate? Probably not (depending on your definition of accurate!). The regular accuracy is +/- 5%. I just don't know b

- No problem Paul. It will read low because the loop in the element is too small for the lower frequency. The higher power elements have a wider bandwidth than the lower power elements so your reading

- I regularly use Bird slugs outside of the calibrated frequency range. All that is required is that you need to run a correction factor (multiplier) to correct the reading. Readings will gradually cha

- Thanks for the quick answers. Since the slug is somewhat expensive and it's high power, I wanted to just get a sanity check before I gave it a try. All I need to see is if the output is even reasonab

- Actually, the higher power slugs have a wider response than the lower power ones. Check page 15 of the manual on the below link: http://www.dxstore.com/download/Bird_43_Series_Manual.pdf 73, Dick, W1
