That is an extended range MN-2000 and is also a L network. A good tuner
for many, but not all.
The last time I needed a switch (for the Swedish government.....they use
many L-4 and L-7 amps) it cost me $80 from Electroswitch in 10 quantity.
Other decent tuners are the Murch and Millen; if you can find one.
