Dentron Super Tuner
One of the most practical and useful tuners I ever owned was the one made by the Dentron Company back in the 1970s and early 80s

Antenna Transmatch tuner Links →
Transmatch automat
Working: 3.0 to 30 MHz. Input power: Over 2500 W PEP
Transmatchs varios acopladores de antenas
As a reference for these projects, variable capacitors of around 410pf, common in valve receivers, are in most cases perfectly usable for low or medium powers
Tuner W1FB scheme Compiled
Variable capacitors have a capacity of 200 pF, for a power of 2 kW at the peak, the gap between the plates should be about 2 mm. L1 - coil with slider, maximum inductance 25 mH. L2 - 3 turns of 3.3 mm bare wire on a 25mm mandrel
Tuners antenne 7 MHz with only one CV
A 1: 1 ratio balancer made with a T200 toroid makes it possible to connect the transceiver with a coaxial cable to the symmetrical circuit formed by the chokes and the CV. As the isolation of the CV is weak

PIC-Keyer This project describes the construction of a real "QRP" keyer with a small microcontroller PIC 16F84, with slightly modified hardware also PIC16F62
