When getting back into ham radio several years ago and stocking up on RF test gear, I was quite reluctant to buy "mighty fine junk" in the form of an antenna analyzer. However, one of my 2-way radio buddies owns one and loves it, there are several in my ham club, and so last summer I bought a 259B used, but like new, at a hamfest. I downloaded and used Tom Rauch's (W8JI) alignment procedure. I also have access to a friend's CIA-HF, which I have used extensively. Its graphical display is QUITE helpful, and is worth the extra money over the MFJ. If your interest is building, tuning, and tweaking antennas, the MFJ is a lot of tool for the money. And none of those friends I've mentioned have had problems with them, nor have I.
