Can anyone tell me if the Ten Tec 253 Auto Antenna Tuner designed fo ruse at 2 KW with an Omni V and Hercules Ampo will work also with the CENTAUR model 422? I was thinking about adding this plus a 4

The 253 manual shows the tuner hooked up with a Herc II for auto band switching of both the Herc and the 253.  It also shows the Titan amp hookup as well  as a generic hookup for "other amps". So in

Brian, If my memory serves me correctly, the TT 253 was only rated at 1kw pep and of course that is really dependent upon the load components that u are trying to match to 50 ohms. The specs for the

Yes, the 253 tuner is rated for 2kw and will handle either amplifier. The manual for it is available for download on the TenTec Wiki in case you want to check it out further. I have a 253 and it is a

Thanks Dave, That is very good information. It sounds like if we used the 253 tuner with something hefty like the Centurion 422, it might not tolerate the high power. Sounds like it was made to use w

IT ABSOLUTELY DEPENDS ON THE IMPEDANCE YOU ARE TRYING TO MATCH, NOT JUST THE POWER LEVEL! If the impedance is too high or too low, you may have to reduce power significantly to prevent arcing. 73 Ric

Bry, simply download the manual from the Ten-Tec web site and read page iV (specifications). It states power and impedance range there. 73 Rick, DJ0P Thanks Jerry, I was looking at TENTEC wiki and do

I usually strip previous parts of the thread, but I'm leaving much of them in here for context. Yes, the power rating of a tuner DOES depend on the impedance that is being matched. While the 229/238

That does not mean it can match 2KW "no matter what". 2KW is ambiguous. You must also read the specs on the matching range. Almost all matchboxes have a clause in their instructions stating that if y

Jerry, that answer is incomplete. What were you matching? Example: My 80m dipole has high SWR in the 75m portion of the band. I can use the tuner and match it, running 1.5KW. BUT if my 80m dipole is

The B model of the 422 is the current model that you see on the Ten Tec website with the black cabinet. I'm no engineer but I don't think there is much difference in the original model 422 and the ne

Hi Rick, Agreed. I am running coax fed antennas here where the tuner is sometimes needed if I stray too far from its resonant frequency. Also, snow sometimes affects my 30 meter delta loop and the SW
