I only have experience with the MFJ, I have an older 259. Very happy with
it, so much so that at some point I'd like to "upgrade" to the 269.


Not sure the 269 is much of an upgrade. I have had two,
first one I sent back because the UHF part did not work
right. The second was exactly the same. I know of others
that had the same problem.

The older 259 had problems with the selector switch.

The 259B fixed that problem. I like the 259B, works
just fine.

The Autek is ok, a little harder to use, I think.
Needs a new battery every time I go to use it.
The switches takes a little getting use to.
