My experience with the MFJ-269 agrees with Roy's -- fine for bench top
measurements but nearly useless for antenna checks if you're close to
high-powered broadcasters. (I'm even closer than he is!)

I have been thinking of an antenna impedance measurement setup using a
HF bridge of some kind, driven by a high-level generator to swamp out
the ambient junk. My 100 wattHF rig followed by a power attenuator
(say, 10db?) would serve to drive the bridge, I would guess.

Anybody have some thoughts on this approach - pro or con? What kind of
bridge would be good?
