Hi Ken, thank You for reply and the tip for the tuner.
Unfortunately in case of AT-AUTO 1500 ... - inductor tended to squeal on some units - calibration problems in many cases - antenna mismatches although SWR 1 reported by the logic unit - jamming the inductor coil during an attempted tune-up - some of units does not work even new arrived from factory - memories troubles on some units - stepper motors and crossneedle meter are not suitable for -30C/iced wx - more antennas switch (4-8) not presented ... it is too many reported issues for so overpriced unit. I though about this ATU year ago but I am not able to spend so huge amount for some unreliable gear. Thank You Ken for info. Congrats to Your BT1500A manual tuner which sounds very good. 73 - Petr, OK1RP On Tue, 26 Jan 2010 18:29:55 -0000, "Ken Kopp" <[email protected]> said: > While it's not the Palstar autotuner, I do have the BT1500A for > balanced line and it's very nice.
