[TowerTalk] Best tuner value? (I think that was the topic)

[Rob Atkinson, K5UJ]

Right, the best tuner depends on what you want to do.  For balanced feed 
lines I use the Bliss Z Matchmaster.  It uses two synchronized 30 mH roller 
inductors and a 1000 pf vac. variable.  One of the things I like about it is 
that the roller inductors are in-line on a threaded shaft with fixed taps so 
the coils move back and forth.  I think this is a bit more rugged and stable 
than two rollers turned together from a single shaft with rubber belts.  
This is a transmatch for low band QRO.  It would not be necessary for lower 
power and/or (obviously) unbalanced lines.
