Hi.

Ok, you can disregard my last post--I've already figured out enough about 
this tuner to know that I am returning it.  It doesn't seem to have nearly 
the range that my MFJ993 does, and adding 6 meters isn't worth it.

Basically, I think this tuner is ok, if your antenna is in the ball park, 
but it doesn't have the range to tune up an antenna that isn't really all 
that close in resonance to the operating frequency (like an antenna that is 
tuned for the low end of 80 meters but is being used at the top of 75 
meters).  So, I think I'm going to send it back and see if I can talk them 
into exchanging it towards a Kenwood TMG707 and VS3.

73, de Lou K2LKK
