[TenTec] New LDG Tuners for Jupiter and Orion

[Steve N4LQ]

I just got this Peg today. The internal tuner seems to work fine. I'm using 
the N4PY pgm and there are 5 buttons that control the tuner. 3 of them are 
for making fine adjustments. It does make quite a racket but it happens 
really fast, less than 5 seconds. Acts like it would match a bed spring.
