Strong Local FM Broadcast / MFJ 259b
The manual on the MFJ 259b warns that strong local broadcast band rf
can cause problems with accuracy of the unit. The warning mentions strong AM broadcast signals. A new tall tower near my house is emitting a strong FM broadcast signal. When I hooked up my G5RV to the frequency counter input on my 259b, it immediately locked on at 100.500 MHz. The signal is so strong that I can hear the station at multiple frequencies when I tune across the FM broadcast band on a small FM radio. Could this be interferring with my attempts at getting reliable R-X SWR readings on my G5RV with the 259b? |
