[Amps] Yes SS needs ant tuner.

[Roger (K8RI)]

On 160, 74, and even 40 those built in tuners are incapable of wide 
frequency changes.  I have 4 SS rigs. One is 200W while the others are 
all 100W out. None can cover all of those three bands unaided. The big 
Palstar tuners take care of the tuning with the aid of an AIM.
