The Autek Research HF-Analyst, model RF-1. 3. The AEA VHF/UHF Analyst -- which won't be much help on 160m! The Autek device is very handy because it is tiny and runs on batteries for a long time. Very good in the field. But you scan frequencies by hand, and if you want a plot, you have to do it point by point. The AEA does the plot for you, but it eats batteries alive, so I generally use it with a 115V adaptor. I have not done a careful test of how well these two agree with each other.

I came up with a very simple solution to one of the FEW things I find annoying about the RF Analyst. You know how the on/off switch is SO easy to turn on accidentally? If you own one you do. Anyway I got tired of the thing turning on in the pocket of my jacket. My solution was to take a small (1/2 inch or so) piece of dense weather strip and put it right over the button (really more like a post).
