Looking for a Ten Tec tuner to match Omni VI plus.
Which one is recommended? I don't currently run an amplifier. I use a
Carolina Windom antenna, so I do need a tuner and like building wire
antennas.
Thanks

I was talking about the Ameritron AL-811a amplifier, which uses three
811a transmitting tubes, not the tube itself. The 572b tubes are
indeed capable of greater output because of their higher plate
dissipation rating, their greater grid current rating, and their
higher plate voltage. Yes, the 572b is "like" an 811a tube, and some
use them in amps designed for 811a tubes because of their perceived
greater durability, but they aren't really the same.
