auto tuner

Has anyone used the Z-11 with their K1?

(It's a attempt to save some money by not buying the auto tune option

because I already own Z-11).

Ron & group,

I initially used a predecessor to the Z-11, the LDG QRP autotuner (the early version without latching relays) with my (then) basic cw K2....it worked pretty well....later I added the Elecraft internal K2 autotuner .......it works a little better and is much handier (no jumper cables,  no separate power supply, etc.), especially when used for portable ops. If you will be operating mostly at a fixed location I expect the Z-11 will do fine....if you plan much portable ops you will find the internal autotuner worth the money. Maybe sell the Z-11 to fund the KAT2?..... Just my opinion.

Sorry, I failed to notice that your inquiry was about using a Z-11 with a K1.....but I think my commects about using the LDG with a K2 will still apply to the K1.
