Default Howes CTU8 Antenna tuner

Currently decontaminating the antenna tuner that came with the lowe HF-150 . There isnat a lot to it. I love how the connections to the sockets have been carefully matched to 50 ohms

Really doesn’t matter much at HF. Dave Howes is still active on the bands, regularly work him on 2 and 70 cms from my QTH in Cornwall, he’s near Daventry
