ToD,

Pre-Selectors: Do They Work ?
- Sometimes Yes )
- - Sometimes NO ;-{

MFJ makes many Antenna Tuners and Pre-Selectors.

1. Some are for SWL "Receive Only" Use.
* MFJ-956
* MFJ-959C
* MFJ-1020C (Active Antenna & External Antenna Pre-Selector)

2. Many others are for HAMs who are using them with Transmitters.
- - - If devise has a SWR-Meter, Inductor or Delay Function then it is
a HAM type unit.
* MFJ-901B
* MFJ-904
* MFJ-1040B (Active Antenna & External Antenna Pre-Selector)
* MFJ-1048
* MFJ-949
* MFJ-901B

3. If you have 'noise' problems in your area/location; then consider a
"Passive" Pre-Selector (NO built-in Amplifier).
* MFJ-1045C
* MFJ-1026 (Noise Cancelling Antenna)

4. If you do NOT have 'noise' problems in your area/location the
consider an "Active" Pre-Selector (with a built-in Amplifier).
* MFJ-959C

TBL: When it comes to Pre-Selectors:
- Can't Hertz ;-{
- - Just Mitz Help )
It is better to focus on your Antenna
and Spend your Time & Money there first.

Hello all,

It is nearing Christmas time and I am preparing my wish list for the
family. Before I put one on my list I would like some of your opinions on
pre-selectors. I am mainly looking at the MFJ line. If any of you have any
of these products I would be interested in hearing how you ell about them.
With this in mind I also need to let you know that I wish to enhance my
listening abilities, *NOT* make it an overly complex task. Some of these
look as though I could spend hours fiddling and not be able to take the time
to listen.

As usual your help is always appreciated.

Regards

Tim
