[TowerTalk] Antenna analyzer

[Dick Dievendorff]

This is a good point. Some devices are more suitable for carrying out to the antenna than others. Some have computer connections for extended charts and graphs. Its hard to recommend "best" without considering the intended use.  In shack it's easy to use my AIM 4170. But I don't want to drag the computer, a 12 v supply, and AIM out to the antenna to tweak a matching length. I'll grab an MFJ or my new RigExpert for that.
