[Antennas] MFJ-993B Tuner question

[Philip]

Hi All,

I've finally decided to take a giant leap and replace my old MFJ-948 manual 
tuner with an automatic tuner (used the 948-949 series for years) next week. 
I've pretty much settled on the MFJ-993 tuner for a number of reasons.  The 
feature of both a bargraph and analog meters being a big one (I like an 
analog meter when first putting up and cutting an antenna).  The internal 
freq counter would also be a 'bonus'.   The other 'possible' choice is the 
LDG AT-200 Pro, but no analog meter, it's about $20.00 cheaper.

Does anyone here know of a reason I SHOULD NOT buy the 993?  Yeah, I know 
what they say about MFJ in general, but have used their stuff for many years 
with few problems.  Does the 993 have a good or bad "rep"?
