QRP Antenna Tuner Kit (AU$49 -CHEAP !!!) Email us for more information. LDG Z-817 Automatic Antenna Tuner - Only AU$199 The Z-817 is the ultimate autotuner for QRP radios including the Yaesu FT-817(D). The Z-817 interfaces to the CAT port (ACC) on the back of the FT-817 radio with the provided cable. Tuning could not be simpler; one button push on the tuner is all that is needed and the Z-817 takes care of the rest. It will switch to PKT mode, transmit a carrier, tune the tuner, then restore the radio to the previous mode! 2000 memories cover 160 through 6 meters. Of course, the Z-817 will also function as a general purpose antenna tuner with other QRP radios. Just transmit a carrier and press the tune button on the tuner. The Z-817 is powered by four AA internal Alkaline batteries (not included), so there are no additional cables required to use the Z-817. Latching relays are used so that power consumption is Zero when not tuning allowing a set of batteries to last about one year. Specifications:
Dimensions: 5.1”L, 4.7”W, 1.7”H. Weight: 9.3 ounces (without batteries). Includes 1 foot CAT cable. Try Scotch All Weather Fasteners to attach the Z-817 to the radio. This Tuner is a great pair to our X1M HF QRP radio, though a power cable would have to be made up to power this unit (or modify the existing cable)
LDG Z-100Plus Automatic Antenna Tuner - AU$219 LDG’s popular Z-100 economy tuner is now the Z-100Plus. Still small and simple to use, the Z-100Plus sports 2000 memories that store both frequency and tuning parameters. It will run on any voltage source from 7 to 18 volts; six AA batteries will run it for a year of normal use. Current draw while tuning is less than 100ma.
The Z-100Plus now includes an internal frequency counter so the operating frequency is stored with tuning parameters to make memory tunes a blazingly fast 0.1 seconds; full tunes take an average of only 6 seconds.
