I borrowed some 1800mA and these are charging fine in the MFJ-259, so it
looks like the
problem is with the batteries. I have never experienced this with these type
of batteries before only NiCad's.

Yes it is. Just looked at the box and it says MFJ-259Z but the front of
meter says MFJ-259B. I don't understand this at all.

The jumper is on in the unit and all the batteries are in there

Is this an MFJ product?

A quick Google search shows a few sales outlets, but the MFJ company
didn't show up when searching MFJ-259Z.
I suspect an after market modification by someone.
This site has a letter from someone else having a charging problem with
the MFL-259Z. See the second letter.
