The loading coil with the MFJ-1625 is pretty flimsy and I might just
consider rewinding the coil with heavier copper (the orginal coil had
a broken turn). All of the aforementioned

Know what you mean. I bought an MFJ 931 a couple of months ago, and only
recently hooked it up to find it does nothing at all. No changes in noise level,
not a dickey birds worth of movement from the meter with the power cranked up to
100 watts - nothing. So, it looks like I am about to do what you commented on
that a little extra solder in the right places never hurt MFJ stuff!
Couldn't resist commenting after seeing your post.
