Antenna Tuner that's a kit

[ka3jjz]

It's rather rare anymore to find kits (you build 'em), but this one kinda caught my eye - it's pretty inexpensive, and apart from two toroids to wind, it looks like most anyone should be able to build it...(there is a prebuilt version, for more money, of course...)

It looks to be quite small, and I've seen at least one report that it works well with the Tecsun 880...Mike

That looks like it would be fun to build. I saw though where the maximum power is 15 watts.

Thanks for sharing the link!

Yeah, this tuner looks to be slanted towards the QRP crowd. Nothing says it can't be used for listeners...Mike

MFJ has one that can handle 300 watts.
MFJ Enterprises Inc.

They also have a pretty good array of kits to build that do other stuff

Yeah, but the 300w versions are overkill for listening apps. Low power stuff like the ZM-2 would work just as well, and with a lot less cost, too.
