After having several MFJ products over the years and hearing MANY HORROR Stories about their Junk , I was reluctant to purchase anything from them. However, I wanted to build a Power distribution panel for the shack and after looking at the MFJ 1128 and MFJ 1129 at a Ham fest, I decided that even MFJ should be able to build something this simple. I bought the 1129, 1128, another smaller panel and 3 packs of power pole connectors. After getting home, I hooked up the 1129 and first thing I noticed was the switch did not work. I opened the unit and was totally disappointed with the AWFUL soldering job on the inside.
1)The wires going through the switch were POORLY
soldered on wire that was heavily oxidized.
2)Many of the larger solder lugs had COLD solder
joints.
3) There were bits of solder and wire fragments all over the inside of the case.
I did not open the other 2 units and will be sending the $300.00 pile of trash back to MFJ and will never make additional purchases from
M F JUNK !!!!!
