Antenna Tuning Unit Design. I have attempted to made the magnetic loop tuner as simple and intuitive to use as possible. It can match the impedance of a radiator to 50 ω for every frequency from 1.5 mhz and 30 mhz.

I have used it on 80, 40, 30 and 20m. It can match the impedance of a radiator to 50 ω for every frequency from 1.5 mhz and 30 mhz. Many antenna design assume free air too.

How does an antenna tuner…tune? It can be seen from the figure that the structure is very simple. Match it as realistically as possible. Since this tuner does all the impedance matching needed, nothing more than a simple 1:1 current balun is required and strongly recommended.
