Procedure
-=
General
-
The
Model 416A Ratio
Me
ter
may
be used
to
measure
the ratio
of
any two
1
kc
voltages.
It
is
particularly adapted
for
use
in a reflectometer
system to measure the
ratio
of
reflected
power to
incide
nt
power,
or
i
n
a
slotted
line system
to
measure
the standing wave ratio.

Model
416A in
a
reflectometer
or
slotted line
system are
given
