 Hi Ken, was wondering which model would suit my application, I wish to 
 Remote the tuner 100ft from Transmitter, in a shed, and then 6mtrs to my 
 Ground Mounted verticle fed with coax, the verticle is a BUTTERNUT HF2V 
 which is resonant on 3 freqs 1.845/3.650/7.100 Mhz, and I would want 
 coverage say 30/20/17/15 Mtrs and maybe a few RFDS at 5MHZ and 8 Mhz, to get 
 the MAX use out of the beast, can i remote mount the AT-11MP in the shed and 
 use it in AUTO MODE, would that work ok, or should i go for the RT-11 and 
 still mount it in the shed and feed antenna 6 mtrs away with coax and then 
 have the REMOTE HEAD control unit for the RT-11. for when i want to take it 
 mobile ?? 
 or do i have to mount RT-11 right at base of antenna ?? in that case the 
 AT-11MP would be no good to me, I was looking at trying to be able to 
 uncouple 2 coax feeds and take tuner travelling or camping hence the shed 
 mount, I would appreciate any comments I spoke to Dwayne but we never got to 
 discussing the AT-11MP 
 
 Kind Regards 
 
Sorry, Dennis.  I misread or misunderstood the Subject.  I have the RT-11 and don't know anything 
about the AT-11MP.  I have considered mounting the RT-11 outside and controlling it remotely. 
Should avoid a little bit of loss in the co-ax on some bands, but I would probably need to use some 
form of Balun or RF Choke.  Also I might run into untunable impedances on one or more bands closer 
to the antenna.  Who knows without measurement?  Good Luck and 73.  -ken-
