Hardware, Cabling, Installations / Reliable antenna tuner for remote with TS480SAT
« on: 2018-11-26, 21:38:43 »
I use a TS480SAT with my Remoterig. As my remotesite is 185 km away from home, I am looking for a reliable external antenna tuner. (the built-in has limitations for some of my antennas)
I have an MFJ993B that I use with my IC7300 when not running remote. That tuner works OK but in itīs present configuration, needs to be restarted after the IC7300 has been powered on. Or else the MFJ will not tune. (running the tuner control cable via a webswitch would probably solve the issue, but I am considering a separate tuner as I donīt want to change all the antennas and tuners every time I am there)
So, those of you who have tried a successful setup of an external tuner, please share.
