But you can do a reasonably good job of avoiding the problems associated with physics if the underlying physics is understood. All tuners have loss. Some designs have less loss than others. A well-b

I need to correct myself. I was reading data from the MFJ-974 tuner. Perhaps MFJ should include a cooling fan! However, even higher losses occur on 10m with the Palstar AT4K. Paul, W9AC _____________

Paul is absolutely on point! The major reasons for excessive heat in a tuner include (but are not limited to): Wire used for loading/tuning coil is too small gauge Slider/roller on roller coil is NOT

165W of loss in a well constructed tuner shouldnt even be a discussion point. Tank circuit loss in a 1500W amp is much more and we accept it as normal. Carl KM1H _____________________________________

It seems to me that the losses in a tuner typically will be effected by the transformation ratio. There is loss in any network that transforms impedance that I've been able to find. Circulating curre

I would expact that sort of comment from you. It was only meant to show that the coil heat we take for granted in an amp is rarely a concern and many (even the most expesive) take no special cooling

I think there are losses to everything. (but only in the resistances not in the reactance) I am sure the losses are proportional to the current in the resistance. -- Ron KA4INM - Endless Loop: n. see

Losses in your typical commercial tuner are in the inductor as the low C used on 80-160 are the problem. This was shown decades ago in ARRL reviews of available tuners.On 160 in particular it was sho

The Palstar AT5K has a table in the manual that shows losses based on the impedance the tuner is seeing plus how the tuner is used. It demonstrates that losses can be as high as 16% (which is nearly

Roger, That is a good point. I have a Palstar AT5K and am aware of the "more C and less L" but haven't been successful at finding more than one setting for a match. I haven't really spent very much t

One advantage of the reversible "L" is that the tuning/matching function is generally optimized with one set of variables. But care is needed in the switched reversing design to keep high coil Q acro
