MFJ has a new remote auto tuner that costs about $750 - supposed to handle 1500 watts. They have one that handles 600 watts for $400.

Some of use with 43 foot monopole vertical antennas are waiting to see how the first user reviews look before we dive into an MFJ product. I suspect they are made by the same Chinese outfit that made similar tuners formerly sold by Array Solutions - but Jay Terleski the owner said they dropped the line over quality control issues. At that time, they had one that could handle 800 watts. I suspect (hope, actually) that if they are from the same manufacturer, they have been improved. Time, I suppose, will tell.

I think MFJ recently came out with one that can handle high power,
but I haven't seen it yet and don't know how much it costs.
