Default Easy to build low power meter

I want to build a power meter for the hf bands that has maybe three
scales: something like 0 to 1 watt, 1 to 5 watts and 5 to 25 watts. I
had one I built for 1-5 watts one time and remember it was easy
measuring across a voltage divider resistance network. Can't find the
schematic rite now.
I enjoy working qrp and it would be a useful asset in the shack.
I also might want to add a circuit to it for attenuator since my rig
only goes down to 5 watts.
thanks and 73
