The W2 cannot measure power in the 1-10mw range. The sensors are calibrated at 144 and 460 MHz. They will certainly work in the 100-118MHz range but the accuracy is unknown.

Is the W2 accurate at these power levels? Also can the W2 (with VHF > sensor) be used to measure below 144MHz with reasonable accuracy.
