Palstar builds great tuners. I love my AT5K. However, I also have an original 
TT 238. The difference is a Pi (In the Palstar) vs an L (in the TenTec) 
configuration. The problem with the Pi is that it "may" give you more than one 
group of settings that provide a low SWR. There's a problem in that. Only one 
group of settings is the best and most efficient. You may not have that one 
figured out. With the L configuration, you only get one group of settings that 
will provide you with a low SWR and that is always the best choice.

Subject: Re: [TenTec] TT and the rest of us... 
Yep -- which brings me to MY question thereon... 
        Is there any advantage to selling my Palstar AT2K tuner 
        to acquire the new TenTec updated tuner? 
        Would it be worthwhile trading up? 
I have contemplated getting the Palstar Auto Tuner... which is 
another debate, but I do not think I wanna buy both. 
Any thoughts?
