Most radios have antenna tuners built in that will do the job just nicely, 
if you are thinking of getting in to MARS or something where you're internal 
tuner may not work or getting a radio, rare as they are, with no internal 
tuner, I recommend the LDG tuners. They're reasonably priced and work very 
well. If you're just staying in the ham bands though, just about any radio 
will come with an auto tuner built in and it should do just fine with just 
about any antenna and frankly, if it won't, you need to do some work because 
the antenna wont' perform very well anyway.
