The General Radio 358 Amateur Band Wavemeter was introduced in Bulletin 926 (1924) and remained available through Catalog K1 (1939).

The Type 358 is an absorption-type wavemeter covering the four overlapping bands. It has a frequency accuracy of 1% and uses an incandescent lamp as a resonance indicator. The lamp is in a special socket that closes the connection when the lamp is removed if not needed.

Each wavemeter is supplied with a calibration chart produced with settings accurate for that particular meter.

A Type 247 gear-driven condenser is used inside the meter.
