I've had excellent luck with the TenTec 238B. When my MT3000A  
basically fell on its face trying to match some of my 160 meter  
antenna efforts, I looked around and compared specifications and  
reviews and settled on the 238B. It tunes a wide range of impedances  
when called upon to do so, and a nice feature is the terminals  
provided to allow the connection of additional external capacitance  
to the circuit when necessary.

Hope this helps.
