Works well, no USB C port,

Does what it's supposed to and does it well. I would have preferred a USB-C port to charge the internal battery rather than a micro-USB. But it works and is worth the money. I am happy with this unit.

Pros
  • hands-free
Cons
  • for old

Not worth the money!

Although the device was structurally well made, it did not work and was defective upon arrival. The seller didn't actually reply but Revane took care of it and sent me another one the next day. Unfortunately, this turned on at least, but did NOTHING. Sent back for a refund.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • No performance

Great product great price

I bought this tuner to replace one of my Elecraft T1s due to the higher performance. Sure, it's bigger, but it's also more powerful and easier to use. Also includes more information about the OLed display. It's the same size as my MiniPA50, which is great for mobile work.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • piggy bank price

It would be nice if they provided instructions on how to use this product.

Cheap I think it works. But the instructions that come with this tuner are grossly inadequate. Why can't you just tell me what steps to take to get the tuner working? The manual is intended for programmers and system integrators. I just want to tune my feedline to achieve efficient transmission. Is it so hard?

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Useless features

Unconfigured 9:1 End Fed Single Antenna

ATU-100 will not fit my 71 foot cables, 9:1 single antenna. With the MFJ-904 manual tuner I can tune the same antenna to a 1:1 SWR on all bands, 80-10 meters. I tried two ATU-100's, one from Revain and one from another vendor. Both had the same problem. I returned an ATU-100 purchased from Revain and received an immediate full refund which is why I'm giving Revain's customer service two stars instead of one. You may have better experiences using the ATU-100 with a different type of antenna, but

Pros
  • Very Good Price
Cons
  • old

ATU 100 1.8-55MHz Autotuner

Purchased around 10th August 2021 This is a small autotuner and seems to work quite well. It's about the same size as the Xiegu G1M but about an inch shorter. I use it with my LAB-599/TX-500 (10W) and it works great. This is the assembled N7DDC tuner, assembled and ready to use. I've tried this with a couple of military grade wire antennas of any length and a couple of other dipoles and in all cases it worked as advertised up to 1:1 to 1:3 SWR. USB charging takes a long time. Easy to charge as…

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Having problems
