The stepped inductors are tapped iron core devices and are used in the 254
series of 200 watt rated tuners. The tapped inductor is wound on a 2" dia
powdered iron core and has 47 taps. The part number is 80402. Inductance
is selectable from 0.1 uH to 20 uH.
The roller inductor is used in the 238 tuner rated at 2 KW. The inductor
part number is 81040. The inductance is variable fro 0.1 uH to 19 uH.
Also available is the high power variable capacitor part number 80858-1.
The rating is 40 pF to 500 pF with a voltage rating of 3.5 KV.
I suggest that you contact Tentec direct for current price and availability
on these items.
Hope this helps.
