Dan,
I own a MFJ-259B and a nanoVNA H3.2
The MFJ is used for field-day operating or when I assist other hams: checking antennas or tuning them,? checking coaxcables, etc.
The nanoVNA is in my shack, connected to pc + nanoSaver. The nano is used for all kinds of RF measurements.
Love them both, my MFJ is still working fine (test it on a regular basis on different loads), bought it in 1999 together with the MFJ carrying pouch. Looking back: a good buy.
73,
Arie PA3A

I am preparing to purchase my first antenna analyzer product. I have an old MFJ-209 which has neither meters nor frequency readout. I love to build antennas, especially for my ham club.
Can any of you give a reason pro or con as to why nanovna vs MfJ 259 series. I presume many are nanovna users due to the lower cost. Is there any tradeoff that would discourage either?
Thanks in advance from a new subscriber to [email protected]
