The Diode should be mounted in a remote probe, close to the probe tip. Sensitivity is excellent and voltage less than 1V peak can be easily measured. The unit can be calibrated by connecting the input to a known level of RF voltage, such as a calibrated signal generator, and setting the calibrate control.
VR1 =For Calibrate
VR2 = For Zero set
