FA-VA3 Antenna Analyser

 

Below are some pictures I took when building the analyser.

The pictures may help with the orientation of the LEDs, the placement of the unmarked inductors, and of the transistors and regulator.

The quality is superb, and it is very easy to build. I think it is fair to say thought that you must have good soldering skills, and this is not a "first project".

All the instructions, and the operating manual are in German, and you must be prepared to translate this and ensure you understand the instructions. This will probably take much more time than the actual building, but is essential.
