Default MFJ - Mighty Fine Junk or good stuff

I havent purchased any MFJ stuff for years now.
Last time I purchased something I was not really happy with the quality.
Can anyone tell me if they have upgraded or is the stuff still Mighty Fine
Junk!


All in all their quality is OK I guess. I have the MFJ-401D keyer,
MFJ-564 paddles, MFJ-1026 noise canceler, and MFJ-921 VHF antenna tuner.
They all look like something that a really talented homebuilder could
build in his home workshop, and they all work more or less as advertised.

What really bugs me is their insufferably arrogant attitude about
providing support via email. On their support page they say "There is a
two to four WEEK (emphasis mine) response time for support emails and if
that's not good enough for you, call us on the phone". There is no excuse
for that kind of an attitude.
