Accuracy: + / – 3.0 dB

When choosing an RF meter, accuracy matters as much as range. The Gigahertz Solutions HF59B and the HFE59B RF Meter Kit both feature an accuracy of ±3.0 dB, a specification that tells users how close the readings are to the true signal strength. For anyone measuring exposure to radiofrequency fields, this level of precision provides dependable results without demanding laboratory conditions.

An accuracy of ±3 dB means that readings may vary slightly above or below the actual value, but always within a narrow margin considered reliable for field measurements. In practice, this tolerance ensures that both homeowners and professionals can interpret results with confidence — whether it’s identifying high-exposure areas in a home or verifying shielding effectiveness in a workplace.

The advantage of this specification is consistency. RF environments are dynamic, with signals fluctuating due to reflections, obstructions, and multiple sources. An instrument with a ±3 dB margin balances portability and ease of use with technical rigor, giving you numbers precise enough to guide meaningful actions like moving a router or planning shielding.
