Not directly that I'm aware. Personally, I have a Bird 43P on the
output of the amp. That way I can read the forward power and then
reflected power with a reasonable amount of accuracy. Then using the
Bird VSWR Nomograph I can accurately determine VSWR.
With 500 watts output then if the reflected value is:
0.6 watts = VSWR 1.07
1.1 watts = VSWR 1.1
2.5 watts = VSWR 1.15
5.0 watts = VSWR 1.22
8.5 watts = VSWR 1.3
15 watts = VSWR 1.4
28 watts = VSWR 1.6
55 watts = VSWR 2.0
If you have more than that, you need to do some antenna work.
