[Amps] Grid dip meters 2 models, opinions?

[Conrad PA5Y]

Yes very nice, I have used one and I have various VNA's at work some of 
which are staggeringly expensive. However they are not mine and a large. 
The VNWA3 needs a PC to work which is also not convenient and is also 10 
times more expensive.

So does anyone have any experience of the devices that I asked about?

Regards
