Is the lowest SWR is the resonant frequency?
Resonant frequency is when Xl=Xc.
When Xl=Xc is not necessarily the lowest SWR.

Maybe a dumb question but how can you tell the resonant freq with
the AA-54. I have one and can do the graph and see where it dips to
the lowest
but havent figured out how to find the resonant freq other than
entering freqs in the
close by range and find on that has the lowest SWR. I have the
MFJ-259B also and
it is no match for the AA-54 but at least when I scan I can find the
lowest swr point
and then read the frequency.

I also have AA-54 analyzers. There is no comparing the MFJ-259B to the
AA-54. The rig expert unit runs circles around the MFJ in so many ways.
Once you use an AA-54 I will guarantee that you will never ever want
to use
an MFJ analyzer again.

Hi Dick,
I have an AA-54 and its the best hand held antenna analyzer I've
ever owned.

Subject: Topband: Handheld Impedance Analyzer
Greetings All
I am getting fed up with multiple trips between new antenna matching
stations and the
tx-source/VSWR and not converging on a good match in quick order !
Please send me - OFF LINE - your recommendation for a handheld
impedance
measuring tool that covers 400KHz to at least 150MHz. I looked at the
RigExpert AA-220 in the latest QST and it looks like a decent tool.
I certainly do not want to restart this topic but new stuff is becoming
available and I don't want to settle for second best if 'best' is
not 2X
more costly!
