Balanced tuner for sale

Vic Rosenthal
Not to overdo my posting privilege, but I have something that might be
of interest for sale: An old Johnson "275-watt" Matchbox, which is a
link-coupled balanced tuner for 80-10 meters (although WARC bands do not
appear on the bandswitch, it usually works on 30-17-12 when set to an
adjacent band).

The "275-watt" rating is for plate-modulated AM, and I've used it at
1200W CW without issues. Naturally it depends on the impedance it sees.

I'm asking $85. A picture and more details are at

This is my experience also. The "275-watt" Matchbox can handle a lot of
power as long as tuning is done at low power.
