The 238C new tuner is a 238B with a built in cross needle watt meter and a better scale to log your settings with. It is still an L match manual tuner and it handles 1500 watts very well.

At that price, it must be an auto tuner with either band data
information from the radio, or built-in frequency counter to tell it
which predetermined settings to use. And it should include an antenna
switch interconnected with the tuning memories. That price is way too
high for a plain manually tuned L network.

very much like the 238B...didn't get any specs on it.
