Hi Howard I wouldn't be without my MFJ-269 analyzer. It is very accurate and a handy size. Highly recommended. (no, I don't own stock in MFJ) One word of caution: mine (and maybe there is something wrong with mine) draws some power from the batteries with the power switch OFF. So I take one of the batteries out when not in use.

Hello to everyone I am seriously thinking about buying an antenna analyzer,I build enough antennas to justify buying one.I enjoy building HF,VHF,UHF antennas of all flavors.The standard swr bridge is just not cutting it anymore.So I guess what I am looking for is one that will do 3mhz to 500mhz,nice to have computer interface but not a priority.I have seen a few on the internet but its nice to get some user input,rather then the sales pitches. Thanks to all who read and reply in advance Howard VE4ISP _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author.
