    For sale :: MFJ 259B Antenna/SWR Analyzer

    It retails for $290. I don't seem to have the original paper work or DC adapter.

    Just tested it out, I'll give a 30 day money back guarantee. It's solid. $200/OBO -- I probably used it 3 times. No particular reason for selling it, it makes me sad that it sits on a shelf all lonely and without purpose. ;)

    PayPal or USPS Money Order - Will ship in the 48 states without charge (5 day slow train).

    Umm, yea. If you sell it you'll regret it someday.

    If I didn't already have one I would jump on that deal.

    I have two, actually. The older one is at a buddies place.
    We worked out a trade, but have not "done the deal" yet.

    Awesome! So you have a spare to bring on over? :)

    I probably will regret it someday, but I'm about to buy a condo in CapHill.. it's not likely I'll have an antenna to tune. The damn thing will just collect dust.

    You can pry mine from my cold dead hands.....

    Yea, I should have got the '269 myself. But there are other analyzers out there that are better at the really high frequencies.

    Like the AIM unit. It's a $890 tho. YIKES! http://www.arraysolutions.com/Products/AIMUHF.htm

    Really high frequency—RHF. That's somewhere above PHF (Pretty High Frequency), right?
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    I have the 269, also, and it works great for what it does. I looked at some of the others out there, but for as often as I use it, I couldn't justify the extra $$.
