I thought this was kind of interesting, I do spend alot of time driving
and cannot stand 98% of local radio broadcasts.
I don't know the quality of this particular manufacturer.

Don't mean to disagreeable....but MFJ stuff is well known for quality
control problems.
Go over to eham.net and read reviews on just about anything MFJ.

I have to give them credit for the wide array of stuff they offer. I
have owned many MFJ devices over the years and except for one manual
antenna tuner - it's all been pretty disappointing.

I would look at other options, if any exist.

MFJ....

Mighty Fine Junk....

That's one of the nicer things I've heard...

Go to http://www.eham.net/reviews/ and check the comments on any MFJ
product.

For less money you can buy a better radio.

I would have to agree with Wavetrapper based on the construction quality of
my 1020-C. Would the manual antenna tuner you refer to be a 16010? Mine is
built like a tank!

My MFJ-1026 isn't exactly tanklike, but it works really well...I can
smudge out any single offending local noise source with ease...

....And with about ten more plus a spiderweb of aerial wire, I can zapp
*all* the noise that wrecks reception around here ;-)
