- Radio Wavemeter, Type SCR-95, 1918 - This wavemeter was likely developed by the US Army Signal Corp for military use. Its purpose is twofold: to detect the frequency of an incoming signal, and to check the frequency and harmonics of an outgoing signal. Early radio operators, working with multiple and specialized technical components, used wavemeters to determine the clarity and strength of their transmitters.

- Lorenz Wavemeter, Type SO-26, 1914-1915 - This radio equipment was used at the German-built Tuckerton Wireless Station in New Jersey. A powerful 820-foot antenna communicated with an identical station in Germany. National security concerns during WWI led to the seizure of Tuckerton by the U.S. government in 1917. It is cited to be the origin of information leaks leading to the RMS <em>Lusitania</em> disaster through U-boat attack.
