Z-100
Low cost 100W auto tuner

$299.00 AUD

The Z-100 is the definitive low cost automatic antenna tuner!
It has been designed from the ground up to provide the power handling you asked for in a small, lightweight package that is perfect for portable operation, as well as sitting on your desk in your shack!

  • Microprocessor controlled
  • High efficiency switched "L" tuning network
  • LED indicators for Status and SWR
  • 200 fast memories
  • Latching relays hold tune position forever
  • Optional Icom, Alinco, Yaesu and Kenwood interface
  • Optimized low power consumption tuning algorithm
  • Tuning time; 0.5 to 6 seconds, 3.0 seconds on average
  • Requires 7 to 18 volts DC (user supplied power source)
  • 1.8 to 54.0 MHz coverage
  • Tunes 6 to 800 ohm loads, up to 10:1 SWR ( up to 3:1 SWR on 6 meters)
  • Power range: 0.1 to 125 watts (50 watts on 6 meters)

Z11 PRO
125W ATU with memory

$349.00 AUD
  • HF power rating: 0.1-125W, 6m power rating: 100W
  • LED display for SWR and status
  • 8,000 3D memories for instantaneous band changing
  • Tuning time: 0.1-6 seconds for full tune, 0.1 sec. memory tune
  • Selectable user parameters
  • 1.8-54MHz coverage
  • Tunes 6-1,000 ohms (16-150 on 6m, to 4K w/optional balun
  • Not for use with FT-857/897 radios if you plan to use V/U because these radios transmit a small amount of V/U RF energy from their HF port and will fool the tuner into tuning. Use the AT-100 in this case.
