[Amps] best tuner

[Edward Swynar]

Hi Sam,

They say that the SPC transmatch ("Series Parallel Capacitance") is a tough
one to beat...I see it in newer versions of the ARRL HANDBOOK.

In fact, just this past week I built another, smaller version for the shack
here --- until such time as I might use it for portable work, for now I've
placed it between the transceiver & my HB linear amplifier.

Works like a charm for me, and the price is certainly right! (why BUY, when
you can easily BUILD...?!).
