Vic,

I have three Bird 43's on-line for low band, 144 and 432 mhz with the 
PEP added board for SSB.  And I certainly used that for monitoring 
purposes.  And in the circuit it is also accurate for CW and such if 
calibrated accurately.  For my situation adding the three kits were no 
brain'ers.  I've gotten my three PEP kits from:

K4DPK is a real gentleman with whom to deal.  (With no business 
connections in any way)

Hope this helps with your decision.
