Hello Friends,
I am very happy with my '259 Analyzer and consider it one of the most
important tools at my station.
However, close proximity to RF fields seem to affect it.
I have found problems in the readings when in the vicinity of high power
broadcast stations on HF (i.e. 3 miles away) on readings on the 160m
band. TV broadcast transmitters on mountain top sites have given me
erroneous readings on the 6m band also.
Maybe others have found this effect also.
