FC-30 Automatic Antenna Tuner
Description
- Yaesu FC-30 Automatic Antenna Tuners respond to control commands from the FT-897 Transceiver, providing microprocessor-based impedance matching on the 160 through 6 meter Amateur bands.
- Designed specifically to mount to the FT-897 HF/VHF/UHF transceiver, FC-30 antenna tuners include a cooling fan to ensure thermal stability of the critical matching elements within its compact case.
The Yaesu FC-30 Tuner covers 1.8 - 30 and 50-54 MHz, handling up to 100 watts with a VSWR of 1.5:1 or less.
Tuneup power is 4 to 60 watts and tuning takes 5 seconds or less. There are 100 impedance matching memories.
This tuner pulls the required 13.7 VDC directly from the transceiver.
The impedance matching is 16.5 to 150 ohms and accordingly, the FC-30 should not be expected to match "long wire" type antennas unless specific steps have been taken in the design of the antenna to insure it is within these specifications.
Internal DIP switches permit you to clear memories and/or have the tuner operate during receive.
The FC-30 comes with a 2 foot (0.45m) coaxial cable, 2 foot (0.45m) control cable and mounting screws.
