Another tuner, often overlooked by some, is the Ten Tec model 229 and later model 238. With it's roller inductor and L match, it does the job without fail on the low bands. A nice feature is the abil

Yes, these are good tuners, excellent value for the price. Downsides -- the fixed caps are a bit under-rated, and the dial cords are a PITA. The current 238B elimnates the dial cord, goes for close t

I've had a 238b for a couple years and it's done a good job in a selection of antennas (and a wide range of impedances) that I've presented it with. I built an external switch box with fixed 1000v ca

Topbanders: I totally agree with the above. The TenTec L-network tuners are very similar to a military Collins unit used for random wire tuning using an E F Johnson 18 uHy roller inductor, a 500 pfd

May 1967 QST has a "transmatch" for 160 by McCoy. It appears versatile but I am not sure of the range of impeadences it will work with. The article says, "... will permit you to couple to most any a

Coil stock is still being manufactured new by Barker and Williamson, who I think was making the stuff when I built an amp as a teenager. http://www.bwantennas.com/coils/aduxlex.htm 73, Guy. K2AV ____

I forgot about this tuner. http://www.somis.org/bbat.html I built it with fixed coils and a switch with preset inductance taps for my applications. The debate rages with the balun at the input or ou
