It's $500-$600, a bit more than the average ham would want to spend,
unless you are into serious contesting or DX chasing. Myself, I would
love to have one, but for my needs the MFJ at $225 has worked for
years. In the future, I may get more real estate, and the AIM4170 may
be just the ticket.

Or into antenna tinkering for its own sake.

For myself, I have the TAPR/TenTec VNA, because it was a better fit to
my particular needs, but the 4170 is a nice, useful piece of gear.


It's hard to predict what the "average ham" would be interested in, in
any case..
