Hi Tom and all,

I think I'm more interested in an auto tuner like the SG-237, which has lug
nuts on its output rather than a coax SO-239.  My reason is that it should
enable me to experiment more liberally with different sizes and shapes of
wire antennas with reasonable safety.  Is anyone else doing something
similar to this?
