Hi Jim,
I mostly got over my fear of MFJ quite some time ago. The real thing now
is that I'm not in the market for new gear. Did somebody say MFJ sells
*parts*? I'll have to look into that. It won't take more than a minute
to find them on the internet when I am ready to look. I bought a fifty
ohm, one hundred watt resistor that is labeled MFJ and I thought the guy
I bought it from had removed it from equipment. Maybe not...
73,
