I am looking at getting an MFJ antenna analyzer and would like to ask the group 
(because I am sure there are many users of the
analyzer here) three things:

1. Can you tune an antenna while it is not erected, like laying on a work table 
with this analyzer, or do you have to have it
installed and in place first and can you tune it with the coax hooked up or do 
you have to be at the antenna.

2. Is there that big a difference between the 259 and the 259b to warrant one 
over the other?

3. Can you tune a BEV three feet off the ground with one of these?

Thanks for your help,
Bob AD5VJ
