Antenna impedance analyzer comparison
Hi - I am looking for an impedance analyzer. Primarily for antenna
measurements (only 1,8-30 MHz) and secondarily for misc. lab measurements (L,C,Q measurements, signal generation, etc.). The possibilities I have been looking at are (in no particular order, prices approximate): a) MFJ-259B ($300) b) MFJ-269 ($220) c) AEA VIA ($600) d) Autek VA1 ($200) d) Micro908 kit from AmQRP ($210) e) N2PK Vector Network Analyzer project ($150) At first glance I have the following points/questions: - Does MFJ-269 offer anything over 259B in addition to VHF/UHF? - W8WWV tests (web) don't indicate that AEA VIA performs better than the MFJs. - Micro908 is new. Any experiences, comments on impedance accuracy? - N2PK may be the most accurate(?) but needs a PC and involved construction. - Any comments on the Autek? All suggestions are appreciated, based on experience and technical quality. 73s de Kristinn, TF3KX |
