Conclusions
The testing of the above ponderomotive wattmeter leads to the conclusion that it is advisable to use such instruments in UHF measurements. The fact that these instruments measure transmitted power, and that they can be calibrated by an absolute method and are relatively accurate makes them particularly suitable for use as reference instruments for calibrating power meters of other systems.
