PALSTAR AT1KP 1200 Watt Antenna Tuner

Price: $469.00



The American made AT1KP tuner is a differential tuner in a classic "T" configuration, featuring a capacitor with 2 stators and 1 rotor. This makes for the maximum ease of use in a manual tuner, since there are only two controls to operate instead of three.

The AT1KP also features a precision, ceramic-body roller inductor. Its small size allows operation up to 6 Meters, while a relay-switched add-on inductor is provided for 160 Meters.

And to cap it off, there is a high power, 4:1 current balun, and Palstar's Peak and Peak Hold dual cross-needle metering (a $149.95 value, found in our popular PM2000A wattmeter) is also included. As on all Palstar tuners, the case is made of sturdy 11 Ga. (.090") iridite treated aluminium and the front panel and top cover are powder coated.

Make the Switch from the "Other" guys

Like most Hams you've probably tried tuners made by the "other" guys. If you're ready for a switch to high-quality American-made products, the AT1KP tuner is a good place to start. When you buy a Palstar tuner you're not just buying a piece of quality equipment - you're buying a product from a made in the USA manufacturer carrying on the American Ham tradition.
