Re: An auto tuner for my IC-7000

I have had poor luck with MFJ tuners.? IMO, for the money, the LDG-100 or 200 Pro II is the best choice.? I have used one for years in the field with my IC-7000s and the shack, it has never faltered.? I also use one in my RMS Winlink station that runs 24/7/365. Now running continuously for over 5 years!? It is simple, quick, automatic, or semi, and it tunes a very wide range. AND it will work fine on other rigs for the future.

I would second the suggestion for the LG-7000. I have an AT-180, and it¡¯s good, but it is pretty limited in terms of antenna matching; 3:1 is about its limit.

Not one of the ones you asked about, but I've had excellent success with an LG-7000 tuner.? It was designed for the IC-7000 and works flawlessly.? Fully automated.? Gave me great performance with an end-fed random wire on every band from 80 to 10.

I have had a good experience with the 929 auto. It has worked well for 6 years; when tuning into loads that are challenging I first tune at 15W.

HI,
I would like to purchase an automatic tuner for my 7k. I have selected the MFJ-939I and the MFJ-993B.
?I would prefer the latter, as it is way more versatile. However, as far as I have understood, when I change frequency, the 939I tunes up without the need to push the "tune" button, while the 993B requires button pushing.
Have I understood well??
Any recommendations for a good tuner?
