Well, that's starting to get out of my budget range right now, but at the 
same time, I'll have to weigh that against quality factors.

I know that some things MFJ makes are of questionable quality, and I have to 
consider that too.

Decisions, Decisions, Decisions!

Tom,

I've had this one  several years and it is out of production.  The newer
models in the line will   run   439$ to 499$ depending on power rating.
The $439 one is a new model rated at 600 watts.   Of course they also have
other specialized  models for super high power, balanced line only,
automatic   and so on that will cost more.

If I ever buy another tuner, it would be the Palstar auto.  Hey it's only
money.

73, Steve KW3A
