Antenna tuner 150 watts
A tunner witha balun T200-6 should give a better Q but the T200-2 was in stock and gave me sufficient tuning range, the capacitors are radio types and can be used up to 150 Watts

Antenna Transmatch tuner Links →
Coupled Tuner LCT
The Link Coupled Tuner, or LCT, inductively couple an RF signal from the Transceiver to the Antenna System, and also in reverse
Controlled 80m antenna tuner
I decided that what was needed was some means of controlling the capacitor from the operating position, and so I developed a means to accomplish this
De L-Tuner
The L-tuner consists of only two components: a coil and a capacitor
Halfwave wire lengths 12 thru 40 meters
This project was the result. I ordered the variable capacitors from Emtech, they are the type used in the Emtech ZM-2 tuner. They are dual gang polyvaricons that are 266 pf per section
Homebrew SGC SG-237 Control Box
it with a 65 foot long inverted-L antenna and I can operate all bands from 160m to 6m with 100 W power levels and this coupler has no problem

23cm Yagi Antenna building Finished antenna at 1275 MHz SWR under 1:1.5 at resonant frequency
50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135 Preamps for 144 and 430 MHz, for 50 MHz, the BFG135a is a cheap transistor and in my view rather strong. It is not easily damaged by static discharge or RF power. FG connection
30 Volt Computer Power Supply Stack A bonus was that i discovered that these did not need a standby load connected to the supply to keep them running just apply mains power and close the Start lead to ground
