No need for a tuner here, all the antennas are resonant - and it has to
be that way so I can locate the antennas out of view from the house or
when coming up the driveway (XYL says so), and in her eye, seeing an
open wire or ladder line feeders is as bad or worse than antenna wires,
so I run 150 ft. long coax lines out through conduit and through the
attic of a large garage building to the entry point of the antenna
field.  It keeps peace in the family :-) .
