The CODAN 9103 HF Automatic Antenna Tuner has been designed for operating with most end-fed long wire and whip antenna systems in fixed land station applications.
In-built memory
A feature of the CODAN 9103 is the in-built memory. This stores the tuning
configuration used to tune a particular channel frequency. The tuning
configuration can be accessed within 10 milliseconds when that channel is used
again. The memory is capable of storing hundreds of individual tuning
configurations.
Easy to install and operate
Housed in a weatherproof case, the CODAN 9103 is supplied complete with mounting
bracket, 10 or 30 m control and coaxial cables (please specify when ordering),
and an installation and operation handbook.
