Ldg electronics rt-11 tuner with icom-706 cable
This is for a lightly used LDG Electroincs RT-11 automatic antenna tuner, manual and ICOM-706 (and maybe 703) interface cable. Was installed in my motorhome and saw very little use.
The RT-11 is a full-featured remote automatic antenna tuner designed for the HF and 6 meter ham bands (1.8 to 54 MHz), for use with transmitters or transceivers outputting between 0.1 to 125 watts. The tuner uses the highly versatile Switched L" configuration with 256 capacitor, 256 inductor and High/Low impedance settings to provide over one hundred and thirty thousand possible tuning combinations. The "L" network will match practically any coax-fed antenna (dipole, vertical, sloper, beam, etc.) within its specified performance range. Long wires, and dipoles fed with ladder line can be matched using the LDG RBA-1 external balun, sold separately. Regardless of antenna type, tuning time is between 0.1 and 5 seconds, typically about 3 seconds.
* Designed for remote mounting and operation, on a tower or near the antenna
* Water resistant ABS plastic case with integral flange mounting bracket; protects circuitry
from rain and other normal weather
* Microprocessor controlled, fully automatic
* Covers 1.8 to 54.0 MHz continuously
* Tunes 6 to 800 ohm loads, 10:1 SWR, 3:1 or less on 6 meters using switched "L" network
* Optional remote control head available. Remote size: 5 x 3 x 1
* Optional Icom, Alinco and Kenwood TS-50 interface available
* Tuning time: 0.1 to 5 seconds, 3.0 seconds typical
* Current Consumption: 7 to 250 mA, 100 mA typical
* Power requirements: 11 to 20 VDC @ 250 mA max
* RF power range: 0.1 to 125 watts (50% duty cycle)
* For Dipoles, Verticals, Vees, Beams or virtually any coax fed antenna
* Optional external balun available for longwires or antennas fed with twinlead
* Enclosure size: 8.5 x 5.5 x 3.0 , weight 2.5 pounds
