Hi guys. I certainly appreciate your quick responses. Like everything else, I guess the answer to a certain extent is "It depends". I probably should have sidestepped the balanced tuner vs tuner/balun part of the question. I've tried all kinds of combinations along those lines, probably guided more by practicality for the particular installation than efficiency. So maybe I should have started with "Assuming a coax-fed antenna......" It sounds like the decision still comes back to (given a reasonably efficient design), what's most practical for the need. The KAT2 integrates directly into the K2 and the T1 offers flexibility for use with other rigs. Looking forward to Dayton!
