Wow, what sad and disruptive news. My first purchase from MFJ was one
of his audio filter boards (BX-2?). I certainly hope that other
entrepreneurial souls will purchase pieces of the company.

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
