MFJ Enterprises Original MFJ-260C Dummy Load, 300 Watt, 0-650 MHz, Dry

Does what it is suppose to do

This dummy load was DOA (dead on arrival). I tested with an ohmmeter and then with a Nano VNA, it was open circuit. I took the case off and inspected it, and did some probing with the ohm meter, the actual big fat resistor was 51.5 ohms, which was within the specification, that was not the issue. The problem is that one end of the resistor clamp relies on a push fit contact with the aluminum case for the return earth path. Aluminum oxidizes to produce aluminum oxide (AL2 O3) with is an isolator, so there is an insulator between the 50 resistor and the case. Ive read other reviews where people have fixed it, well aluminum can oxidize in as little as 1 month so I would not trust that fix. Im not going to risk my $1000 transceiver on this piece of junk. This is a very poor design, has a fatal error and can only be fixed by installing a dedicated copper earth return wire back to the connector. So I guess its true what I read online MFJ = Mighty Fine Junk

Great little dummy load perfect for medium to low power. Compact design great for testing and troubleshooting.

Works as expected, nothing more nothing less

This came as a gift to my husband. He really likes it.

As specified 50 ohm dummy load. Good for HF and up to about 150mhz... after that, you need to spend some real money on something more accurate. However serves mt need 110% would buy another one if I needed it! A good buy for the money!!

The dummy load works just as it should. Ive been able to test and tune several radios with it. I recommend it highly.

Works fine.

Works fine

Works as advertised although to date the highest power input to the dummy load was about 75 watts. In my experience MFJ makes good products.
