Yep, a noise bridge can be quite handy for setting up an antenna tuner.
And is a lot simpler device,
usually a wideband noise source (a diode abused until it hisses)
and a calibrated bridge to indicate impedence or sometimes SWR.
Generally cost about a third of an ANC-4
I used an MFJ-202B and a Drake MN-75 tuner. If I were to go back to using a
large dipole or inverted V that's probaby the combo I would again employ.
It was easy to set up the antenna for various bands and I simply marked the
basic settings on a card which made it very handy to hop from band to band.
