Hi,
after many years of not having one, it would seem it is time to buy a bit of test gear to help me with antenna feed point testing but what to buy? primarily looking for VHF-UHF coverage as my main interests span from 50 to 1296 MHz but the later one is a bit tough to do in a single box.
So which one to buy or which ones to avoid? or do I need two one for VHF and another for HF antennas? there seems to be plenty of choices for HF but the higher bands is my main interest.
Stability, battery life, display of plus and minus reactance and other key points are all on the menu
Interested to hear opinions in here or directly on email. (vk8zlx @ gmail com)

Peter, vk5pj
