[TenTec] Palstar tuner

[Richards]

I did not draw the same conclusion from the piece.
I purchased the Palstar tuner because they seemed
rather close in performance and I took the advice of
several local hams in the lunch bunch.   I thought they
were all very close, and I, too, was surprised the MFJ
was as highly regarded - I was hoping for a clear winner.

I think this is the piece you refer to.

I just found  "corrections" to the piece here...

Maybe they change the original charts sufficiently to support
your conclusion ???    I did not realize there was a correction
bit when I first read the piece.

I am gong to re-visit the whole matter....
