The rubber piece which goes over the control cable connector wider than the cable. Metal finish on mounting plates of the tuner has as few sharp spots Switching the tuner to pass-through and re-tuning fixes this. We dont know when or if this item will be back in stock. When tuner has a memorized tuning solution for the frequency in use, and the antenna changes slightly after the solution was memorized, the tuner will continue using the memorized solution, even if a better solution is possible. ATU-100 Upgraded ATU-500W ATU500 Automatic Antenna Tuner (ATU-500W by N7DDC) Tuning Range 10W-500W. Normally, there's no need to open the tuner, but if it does get opened, it at first looks as if the nuts are captive, but there's still a good chance that some will fall out. The nuts on the back of the case are glued to the case with very weak glue.
#AUTOMATIC ANTENNA TUNER INSTALL#
If two wire terminals need to be used, then it can be a bit difficult to install them.

All of our tuners are optimized to operate with Elecraft. The screw on the top electrode is a bit short for some of the antenna types recommended in manual. Elecraft produces a wide range of automatic antenna tuners from 20 Watts and up to 500 watts. I removed one star due to a number of very minor bad sides of the tuner The Z-100A tuner goes anywhere with and HF radio desktop, portable, parks, islands, or. Easy integration means plug and play operation installation could not be simpler. Improved handlingKenwood TS-480 to Icom AH-4 Automatic Antenna Tuner Interface. The Z-100A features LDG’s famous 10:1 SWR tuning range that matches Dipoles, Verticals, End fed wires, G5RVs or even an Off center fed Windham. Internally, all of the coils are secured with some sort of elastic silicone-looking compound (not the hot-glue which cracks quickly), so I do not believe that vibrations would be an issue. LDG Electronics IC-PAC Icom Interface Cable Icom to generic tuners 17. I can not always erect this antenna in the clear. One example is when I use my half wave end fed 40. Lots of attention has been paid to waterproofing it, with multiple layers of waterproofing on all openings of the box. by Barry (KU3X) There are times I find myself in need of an ATU. The build quality of the tuner is quite good. As a result of that, during tuning, radio will always see low SWR, which is better than some other tuner brands, which expose radio to high SWR while the tuner is looking for solution. During tuning process, the signal coming from the radio is first fed into an attenuator inside of the tuner, and then, the attenuated signal is used for tuning.

It tends to find tuning solutions quickly, and matches antennas of specified length to an SWR of less than 2.
