Bird’s journey began in 1942 when J. Raymond Bird founded a company dedicated to solving one of engineering’s toughest challenges - measuring RF power with accuracy and repeatability. Over eight decades later, BirdRF has become the trusted name in RF power measurement and monitoring, known worldwide for the precision behind every watt, every sensor, and every calibration.
Our innovations have powered generations of engineers, from early broadcast systems to today’s advanced communications, defense, semiconductor, and medical technologies. Through every era of change, one thing has remained constant: our commitment to making accuracy effortless and performance undeniable.
Today, Bird continues to unite heritage and innovation, pairing proven engineering with forward-thinking solutions that anticipate where RF is headed next. We don’t just measure signals; we measure trust, reliability, and progress. Because at Bird, every signal tells a story and we’re proud to be part of yours.
RF power is invisible — but its accuracy shapes how the world communicates, travels, heals, and protects.
At Bird, we turn that invisible energy into measurable truth. Our products and solutions empower engineers, technicians, and innovators to see what others can’t — ensuring that every signal is precise, every system performs, and every mission succeeds.
Why does it matter? Because behind every watt of RF power is something critical: a firefighter’s radio, a satellite link, a medical device, a semiconductor process. The accuracy we deliver keeps these systems safe, connected, and performing exactly as intended.
For more than 80 years, Bird has built trust by making the complex simple — transforming unseen signals into confidence, reliability, and progress.
From the first watt measured in 1942 to the advanced systems we power today, Bird’s technology ensures accuracy in the world’s most demanding environments. Wherever RF power drives progress, Bird is there—quietly making sure every signal performs exactly as it should.
We serve industries where performance, safety, and trust are non-negotiable:
At Bird, our family values aren’t just words on a wall—they’re how we work, lead, and serve. Rooted in decades of craftsmanship and care, these principles guide how we innovate, collaborate, and earn trust every day.
