MFJ Enterprises Original MFJ-949E 1.8-30 MHz 300 Watt Deluxe Versa Tuner II Antenna Tuner

Works great I use it on 11 meter Im very happy with it thanks

I had a previous version of this meter and this is an exact replacement.

Like quality and looks but most important it tunes almost all antennas Bravo.

MFJ has no pre-shipment testing and poor QA inspection. Mine had capacitor plates rubbing together making it not usable. After opening the unit, doing a visual inspection, correcting the problem, it worked fine. No one should have to repair a product at this price point! If you choose to purchase this device, please inspect it before putting your expensive transmitter in jeoparty!

This product was intended to match an antenna to a CB radio to give it a perfect standing wave ratio with no reflective power it does exactly what it was intended to do this antenna tuner will probably give a one to one standing wave ratio between any radio and any antenna I’m very pleased with it and I would highly recommend this to other CB radio enthusiast and ham radio operators who desire to have an excellent antenna matcher it’s easy to use and well worth the money

Few thing you have to know… it doesn’t comes with instructions manual. So you have to download it from MFJ webpage. Once downloaded, they doesn’t tell much either. Only basic guidelines. The best way to learn to use it is to lower the transmitter power to a constant 5 watts and start to rotate all three main knobs until you get the right pointing needle (reflected pwr) at it lowest position and the left pointing needle (foward pwr) at 5 watts in the scale and that’s it. No rocket science here. Try in different frequencies and you’ll see it’s magic!

Excellent tuner N7BSH

This unit works well and was just what I needed to tune out my antenna and got my SWRs perfectly flat 1 to 1 and the dummy load allows me to peak out my radio for optimal performance.

I received my tuner promptly, it was well packed and didnt have any shipping damage. Pleased with the overall transaction. My order was fulfilled by GigaParts and they shipped promptly. The actual item, however, is in dire need of improved quality control from the manufacturer. MFJ has a spotty reputation and its pretty clear that they are challenged in striking the balance between quality and low prices. Id rather they spend a little more on the QC process even if it means charging a bit more for the products. As I said, my unit arrived entirely unscathed by any of the shipping it had endured prior to reaching me. When I opened the box containing the tuner, all looked to be in fine condition. That became a different story when I hooked it up to a rig though. I found that the tuner couldnt tune a match (3:1 VSWR was its best) to either its own internal or to an external 50 ohm dummy load. Using the bypass function to the external dummy load, the match was 1:1. Investigating further by looking inside the unit, I found that the variable capacitor for the antenna side of the T had its blades bent, shorting each one to its partner through the entire arc of rotation. There is no way that this unit passed any sort of quality control before it left MFJ, given the fact that there was no physical damage to the shipping box, the unit box or the unit itself. Since Ive opened the unit to investigate this failure, Ive voided the warranty. Ill either repair the capacitor or replace it. Overall, these are not bad units, but, please be sure to give them a good examination before putting them into actual use.

works excellent....thank you amazon..
