Hi John,

With the shrinkage in the size of HF radios, the amount of "real estate"
available for the autotuner has become smaller. The T-network components
have shrunk accordingly, so current autotuners have much less tuning range
beyond their advertised spec of 16 to 150 ohms (VSWR = 3:1 max) than their
predecessors.

Manufacturers are required only to hold to their advertised specs, no more
and no less.

Cheers for now, 73,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ
