Hi Steve, I personally have no bad experiences with MFJ antenna analysers at all. On the contrary! In our city-club Leiden we have a MFJ-259B that goes from station to station and is highly appreciated by all of us. And believe me, there are some around here (excluding me of course hihi...) that really know what they are doing!
Wishing you all succesfull antenna measurements. Meanwhile I will play around with my "new" KX1, which just arrived last wedenesday from N7BNT. Maybe some remembered my plea for a deal with a FT817? Well this list made two people happy again; Doug's son and me ;) Best 73, Dick PA2DW K2 # 3892 KX1 # 731 -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Stephen W. Kercel Verzonden: vrijdag 15 april 2005 6:31 Aan: [email protected] Onderwerp: [Elecraft] Antenna Analyzers There is an interesting piece in the May 2005 QST. It has product reviews on four different antenna analyzers. Two that were included are the MFJ-269 and the Autek VA-1. I have heard endless horror stories from many hams about both, abysmal quality control, virtually useless tech support and so on. None of these negatives are mentioned in the QST product review. There is also a new product favorably mentioned in the review, the Palstar ZM-30. Since the MFJ and the Autek are apparently both junk, despite being favorably reviewed in this article, I'm not sure whether I can trust the product review on the Palstar. Anybody have any experience with it? Is it any good? 73, Steve Kercel AA4AK _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
