Excallant unit. Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I bought the Nye Viking MB-V-B used. I had an MFJ 986 before and it burned up, twice. This unit as far as I can tell is the same as the MB-V-A but without meters, which is fine as I have a separate SWR/Wattmeter anyway. It has been able to tune a directly-fed quarter wave end-fed and my new 160 meter ladder line fed dipole on all bands at 1:1 SWR, except a small portion (on the 160 dipole) of the lower 80 meter band which it tunes at 2:1. The tuning is sharp, so I keep a detailed chart of the settings. It's a very robustly built unit and will handle the power. I don't expect to ever need a replacement tuner.
