Roger:

I have an LDG Z-11pro that I use with my Scout and Century 22. It works well. The flashing lights and buzzing relays are a bit unnerving, at first.

For my main station, I use a second hand Drake MN-7 which is an excellent tuner. Interestingly, the MN-7 color and styling is an almost perfect match for the Ten Tec Corsair.

Whatever tuner you get, I recommend that you derate it. If you run 100 W, get a tuner rated for 200 W.

Earlier in the month, I asked for opinions on tuners and
the feedback was great. I have since procrastinated about
spending the greenstamps, but it is no longer an option.
If I need a tuner for a 100 watt rig and using only one
antenna, then it seems like overkill to think about a
TT238 or Palstar. The LDG line of simple auto tuners
seems like a cost effective solution. If anyone has
any additional feedback; it would be welcomed. W7RIP
