Hi, everyone -
Everyone on HF eventually needs a good high-power tuner (unless you're
operating QRP, but even then, the high-power tuners have the least loss).
What I have right now that may interest you is a Murch UT-2000B. This is a
roller-inductor transmatch that does 160-10m. The caps are large as well.
The only caveat is that the toroid that used to be in it for balanced line
was removed due to its being zorched when I tried stuffing 1500W through it.
The rest of the tuner will handle 1500W whilst barely breaking a sweat on
80-10. I'd keep it under 750W on 160. $130 + shipping. It's pretty light.
I used this tuner with Drake C-Lines through Yaesu FT-1000D. It never
complained after I removed that toroid. Honestly, it you want a
balanced-line tuner for 80-10, look for a Johnson KW Matchbox. If you need
balanced for High-power 160, you'd better roll your own.
