Default Ten tec 229A 2kw Tuner

This is the Workhorse Ten Tec Model 229A Antenna Tuner
Hard to find model 229A Tuner in good condition. Previous owner smoked so adjust your sights accordingly. It also has scratches and they don't affect performance. They just add to your savings. This unit has performed AOK at this qth.
