automatic ASTU

[Ian Stirling, G4ICV, AB2GR]

Hello ..

  I really wanted to buy an Elecraft automatic tuner.
The T1 is too low power capable and the KAT100 requires
the K2 KSIO or KPA100. (and requires a K2 anyway).
  Without looking at the circuit, presumably it needs
frequency information from the K2 serial port rather
than a built in frequency measuring circuit.
 I feel that Elecraft is missing out a good
opportunity, a moderate power automatic tuning unit
that can work with any radio.

  I found the discontinued SG-231, new, for a very
good price.  I look forward to using it with my K2
and IC735.

I have often thought that a sufficiently enterprising individual could
take a T1 apart (or better yet, not put it together) with bigger parts
and make a higher-power tuner.

Perhaps Dwayne might be persuaded to get back into the kit business with
this one.

Cheers, and Merry Xmas.
