[TowerTalk] Fwd: Portable analyzers

[Hans Hammarquist]

OK Dick,


The MFJ-259 (as well as the MFJ-269) works well but they are like using a manual tuned radio as a spectrum analyzer, tedious. I'm using mine a lot but wouldn't mind to have some help with a faster overview especially when working with multiband antennas. Compared to "modern" VNA they are rather clumsy too in size too.


We shouldn't hang on the old, good stuff forever. We can upgrade from the muscle cars to the more "fuel efficient" models. :)


73 de,

You guys can laugh all you want to,
but my MFJ-259, which is quite old,
maybe 15 years ?? Still works like
a charm.
