This video is a comprehensive review of the functions and operation of the RigExpert AA-55 ZOOM Antenna and Cable analyzer. This lightweight portable analyzer can perform swept frequency measurements such as SWR, Return Loss, Complex Impedance and Smith Charts. It can also perform single or multiple frequency SWR measurements in several useful display modes. The SWR2AIR feature is very cool, allowing the analyzer to report the SWR via a wireless radio signal. Additional measurements can be made on transmission lines, such as quarter/half wavelength lengths, velocity factor and length, as well as loss & impedance vs. frequency.
