Yes that's true, it does have a wide matching range and I am happy with it.
One thing threw me when I got it almost 2 years ago: My old MFJ tuner had
single turn caps. The caps on the Palstar need 6 turns on the knob to do a
single 360 degree rotation of the cap. Half the knobs would be half the
work, but as you said, you do get a wider range.
