ARRL tested some popular commercial antenna tuners and reported the results in QST as follows. They covered 160-10 and various loads. All were quite lossy on the low bands with low Z loads. February,

Thanks Dan. That's been my experience, at least I've always believed it. With some of my antennas, I can't even get them to tune up on the low bands, even though they're "rated" for it. Even though t

And there are people out there that didn't expect this? They are running into low impedance loads which means high currents and high losses. I believe the Palstar manual even mentions this. Also the

The first series of tests even had the MFJ coils catching on fire in the ARRL lab at well under power ratings on 160. Tuners with 250pf max on 160 will always be inefficient, a High C tuner with 500p

Kevin Schmidt, W9CF, has a nice Java app where you can study the losses in a T-network tuner at http://fermi.la.asu.edu/w9cf/tuner/tuner.html Tom W0VJ _______________________________________________

The TenTec L-network design is interesting and has lower losses than most, but when I called them about it they wouldn't stand behind QRO AM/CW/digital operation on 160M even with a 50-ohm resistive

Not true. Build for your particular impedance matching needs. the TT product and most made for hams are designed to attempt to match everything because that's what most hams what, the mythical do eve

True. they can be no pass and the coil becomes the dummy load. Very easy to do if not familiar with a T tuner. Ts are not necessarily High pass nor are Ls for that matter. ___________________________

I am going to have to say something here. If there is a need to match two different impedances the network is no longer simply a low pass or high pass filter but becomes resonant with some Q which in

Tuners with 250pf max on 160 will always be inefficient, a High C tuner with 500pf will be very efficient and require proportionally less L. The higher Q results in less bandwidth so there is no free

BC610 had a unshielded adjustable link. I used to have a HT-4 when I was a teenager. I scrapped it to make an amplifier. At one time I ran 2x 250TH in grounded grid driven by a pair of 6146Bs with a

I guess mine was before yours. I was in AF Mars while in HS and scrapped a pair of BC-610's plus got other parts to build PP 250TH's with 810 modulators driven by a Johnson Viking I. This was in 1957
