What antenna tuner (possibly with amp) for under...say a hundred bucks

This would be for general coverage and DXing.

Thanks.

(Not a tuner, but a preselector, which is much better.)


There's also the 1045C which is not designed as an active antenna.

According to one of the techs I talked to at MFJ, this unit is to be
preferred over the 1020C, if your main concern is preselection. Of
course, it comes with no whip antenna. Runs off of a 9V battery as
well as from a wall wart (just like the 1020C). The description says
the 1045C accomodates 2 antennae and 2 receivers: not true; it's for
one antenna and one receiver, although it does have both a UHF and an
RCA connector for your antenna connection and the same for connection
to your receiver.

Although I will google this, I'll continue the thread by asking;
What's the difference between a tuner and a preslector?
