Where to Find MFJ Product Manuals and the Free Email-List Book Offer
Updated
MFJ product manuals are available through the Product Manuals link in the site's main navigation, and the free book offer is tied to the email list signup: the site states that joining the list gets you a free copy of the MFJ-3302 book, "73 dipole & Long Wire Antennas." Both are site-wide resources rather than links buried inside a single product page, so you can reach them from the homepage navigation without knowing a specific model number.
Finding Product Manuals
The navigation lists Product Manuals alongside Catalog, New Products, Clearance, Newsletters, and Contact and Support. The practical workflow:
- Open the site and use the main navigation to select Product Manuals.
- Identify your model number first (for example, MFJ-9219, MFJ-557, or MFJ-1918EX) — manuals are organized by product, so the model number is the input you need.
- Match the manual to the exact model and variant. MFJ sells closely related versions at different prices — the tripod line alone includes the MFJ-1919EXAL ($199.95), MFJ-1918EX ($129.95), and MFJ-1918 without mast ($84.95) — so confirm the suffix before downloading.
Expected result: a document covering the specific product rather than a general catalog entry. If a manual does not appear for your model, the Contact and Support page is the fallback; the site also offers a Create A Support Ticket option.
The Free Email-List Book
The offer is stated directly on the site: join the email list and receive your free MFJ-3302 book, "73 dipole & Long Wire Antennas." The signup is described as a link on the page ("Here is the link to Sign Up for Our Email List"), and the book is presented as the incentive for joining.
What to expect and what to check:
- What you get: the MFJ-3302 title on 73-ohm dipoles and long-wire antennas — useful background if you are setting up the portable or wire antennas the tripods and tuners are sold for.
- Condition: the book is tied to the email signup, not to a product purchase, based on the page wording.
- Delivery details: the page does not specify whether the book arrives by email or with an order, so treat the signup confirmation as the place to look for fulfillment instructions.
Other Documentation and Reference Pages
Beyond manuals, the navigation exposes several pages that answer common pre-purchase questions:
| Page | What it helps with |
|---|---|
| Catalog / MFJ Catalog | Browsing the full product range by line |
| New Products | Recently added items, such as the MFJ-9219 QRP tuner |
| Clearance | Discounted stock |
| Newsletters | Archived company updates |
| Contact and Support | Support tickets, email contact, and repair requests |
The site also carries a note that orders are still being taken and shipped, and directs customers who cannot reach the company by phone to email [email protected]. That same address is the required first step for repairs: request an RMA (Return Materials Authorization) before sending anything, because packages arriving without an RMA are returned to the sender.
Practical Tips
- Start from the model number, not the product name. MFJ's lineup includes many near-identical variants (the tripods above are one example), and manuals follow the model.
- Check the manual before buying accessories. For example, the MFJ-264 SWR/wattmeter is rated for 1.5 kW with a 100-watt/10-minute and 1.5 kW/10-second duty pattern — the manual is where such limits are documented in full.
- Use the email list as a low-effort way to get both the book and announcements about new products and clearance, which the site presents as separate pages you would otherwise have to check manually.
The two resources are independent: the manuals page serves existing owners, while the email signup serves anyone interested in the antenna book and company updates. Neither requires a product purchase based on the page content, though the site does not state whether an account or login is needed to download manuals.
