U20505 Used MFJ Deluxe Versa Tuner II MFJ-949E Antenna Tuner 1.8-30MHz 300 Watts

U20505 Used MFJ Deluxe Versa Tuner II MFJ-949E Antenna Tuner 1.8-30MHz 300 Watts

This pre-owned MFJ-949E Deluxe Versa Tuner II is in good overall cosmetic condition, showing noticeable surface scratches across the black metal cabinet from previous shack use. Some of the surface scratches on the enclosure have had touch-up attempts made using a marker. The front faceplate, lighted cross-needle meter, rotary switches, and tuning dials remain clean and intact. Please note that the unit presents a detectable odor consistent with prior kitchen or storage environment exposure. It comes packed in its original factory box with a PL-259 coaxial jumper cable and the printed instruction manual.

The MFJ-949E Deluxe Versa Tuner II is one of the most popular manual antenna tuners ever produced, engineered to match virtually any transmitter to almost any antenna system across 1.8 through 30 MHz. Rated for up to 300 Watts RF power handling, it features a full-size peak/average reading cross-needle SWR and wattmeter that displays forward power, reflected power, and SWR simultaneously at a glance. Equipped with a built-in 50-ohm dummy load for tune-ups, a custom 12-position inductor switch for fine inductance matching, an internal 4:1 balun for balanced lines, and an 8-position antenna selector switch, the MFJ-949E delivers comprehensive tuning flexibility for coaxial cables, random wire antennas, and ladder-line setups.

Condition
