MFJ status
by Ken Alker 26 Apr '24

26 Apr '24

Dear Fellow Hams and Friends, April 25, 2024 Dear Fellow Hams and Friends, It is with a sad heart as I write this letter. As many of you have heard by now, MFJ is ceasing its on-site production in Starkville, Mississippi on May 17, 2024. This is also the same for our sister companies' Ameritron, Hygain, Cushcraft, Mirage and Vectronics. Times have changed since I started this business 52 years ago. Our product line grew and grew and prospered. Covid changed everything in businesses including ours. It was the hardest hit that we have ever had and we never fully recovered. I turned 80 this year. I had never really considered retirement but life is so short and my time with my family is so precious. I want to thank all of our employees who have helped build this company with me over the years. We have many employees who have made MFJ their career for 10, 20, 30, 40 and more years. We are going to continue to sell MFJ products past May 17, 2024. We have a lot of stock on hand. We will continue to offer repair service work for out-of-warranty and in-warranty units for the foreseeable future. Finally, a special thanks to all of our customers and our dealers who have made MFJ a worldwide name and a profitable business for so many years. You all are so much appreciated. Sincerely Yours, 73s Martin F. Jue, K5FLU

For those interested… The bands are strong today. Try 3G0YA (Easter Island) on 12 (24.944) and 15 (21.262) meter bands - this is a DXpedition and so the operators are working “Split” (listening 5-10MHz above these frequencies. Warren

Re: calling CQ

We once had a Field Day where a member of our group tripped and ripped his ACL in the dark. I rushed to help not realize that I had the AutoCQ going on 7.045. Returned an hour later.....
