The low range tuners up to 3:1 are very low loss and then can be made
reliable. High range tuner for 1.5KW would be less so.
You may buy MFJ-998 as an extra. I use MFJ-998 with 1.5 KW and a
ladderline-fed dipole for a few years. Only

cost of adding 40m to the basic design, I would say that it is a great
value.

My main 40m antenna meets that requirement over a

Hmmm. 40M is not very wide (only 4.2%, as compared to 80M which is
14.3%). What kind of antenna is it? Simple antennas
The KPA1500 is right now outside my budget, but there is nothing wrong with
dreaming and planning, right? The latest QST reviews the new Palstar amp,
which first seemed attractive, but I soon noticed that its continuous
carrier capacity is no better than the KPA500. Also, when you add the price
