Description
The BT1500A 1500 watt balanced antenna tuner is the only 1500 Watt, Double-L Network antenna tuner on the market today covering 20m to 160m (2500+/-j2500) and 10m – 15m (1000+/-j1000). The BT1500A features two tandem mounted, precision ceramic roller inductors for a truly balanced tuner.
A dual section capacitor provides the correct amount of capacitance for both low band and high band operation, and is relay-switchable between the input and output side to provide the maximum possible range of impedance matching.
