May I suggest that people consider the N2PK Vector Network Analyzer.

So far, I think it is a better design and is cheaper.

TAPR has a nice VNA project going, www.tapr.org... it was featured in
a July/August QEX. They are also going to offer it assembled I think
thru Ten-Tec. It does a lot more than an antenna analyzer to boot, but
requires a computer so is not portable. It does all the complex
impedance measurements, but since it has its own DDS signal source, it
can also display gain/loss type measurements, differential phase and
gain error, etc.

If Elecraft is going to get into making kits for more sophisticated
test equipment, I'd like to see an antenna analyzer. The MFJ ones are
ridiculously overpriced over here, and it's not practical to bypass
rip-off UK dealers and buy direct because MFJ levy a deliberately
inflated international shipping charge. Besides, I'm sure an Elecraft
product would be higher quality.
