Thanks.

If you have not already bought the accessory- skip it. By far the worst
implementation of a dip meter I have ever seen. At the other end of the
scale is the Measurments Model 59, commonly available on EBay.
With it, you can dip the center of a 36" rod- and see a HUGE dip even while
inches away. The MFJ can't find it if it's on top of it- and most others
aren't much better.

I have the MFJ with the accessory *and* the Model 59. I can't agree more
with Dale's assessment.
