Hi Dave ...
Been using mine for mostly portable OP using a 20 meter
dipole usually launched to 20 feet or so. The Z-100 tunes this successfully
on 80 thru 10 meters. It seems to be more fussy on 6 meters and 160, so
having an antenna made for those bands would help it out. It tunes fast, and
I was amazed how cool it runs even tuning the 20 meter dipole on 80 ! (Had
some good QSOs there). It is a bit noisy, with relay clatter until the
first tuning on each band is made. Once a frequency is tuned low enough in
SWR, though, it's very fast. It doesn't always get below 2:1 SWR, but it's
satisfactory. I put a manual tuner in line if I really want to get SWR low !

I am looking at one of these for use with my mobile station. It is a
Kenwood
TS50S and Hamstick. Anyone using one? How is it working? Thanks.
