The gold standard are the Xtronic couplers, available at HRO. The have ruler flat frequency response and handle legal limit power with margin to spare. Don't forget an appropriate attenuator between the coupler and the radio, if necessary (see this post: https://apache-labs.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=2384).
