Pros
  • antennas

QRP Simple T-Network Tuner for 80-10m ham radio bands

Fixed: Starting with capacitor tee: Start-1T-2T-2T-2T-4T-2T-3T-3T-2T-3T-2T-10T-END (GND). Connect the switch contact L, the cleaner and the free end of the 10-turn winding to ground. Switch contact A is connected to the tap between the windings 1T and 2T, B to the tap 2T-2T. K to the 2T-10T branch around the switch. I
