Topband: Antenna Analyzers

[Richard (Rick) Karlquist (N6RK)]

I wish the review had tested the "antenna" analyzers on *antennas*,
not laboratory loads.  All of these meters are seriously
degraded by nearby broadcast stations.  My MFJ-259 is useless
at my QTH.  The N2PK VNA solves this problem and is cheaper to boot.
