Description:

The second-hand Yaesu FC-20 Antenna Tuning Unit is an excellent choice for amateur radio enthusiasts looking to optimize their antenna systems. Designed to work seamlessly with the FT-847 and FT-100 transceivers, the FC-20 effectively tunes out minor Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) variations. Analyzing the impedance at the radio end of the coax adjusts the impedance to meet the 50 Ohm requirement, ensuring efficient signal transmission and reception. This automatic antenna tuner employs a combination of fixed inductors and variable capacitors, precisely controlled by stepper motors for accurate tuning. It can handle SWRs of up to 3:1 on HF bands and 2:1 on the 50MHz band. Additionally, the FC-20 features an impressive memory system, allowing users to store up to 100 different band and tuning configurations for their preferred frequencies, streamlining the tuning process for quick access.
