Specifications

I d e a l l y, your HF-SSB radio would always be
perfectly tuned to your antenna – for
maximum range and clarity. It’s a goal that’s
been easy to wish for, but not so easy to
achieve. Until SGC developed the intelligent,
m i c ro - p ro c e s s o r- c o n t rolled, SG-230
Smartuner
®
.
The SG-230 Smartuner
®
– intelligently –
tunes any length antenna from 8-80 ft! No
preliminary tuning or adjustment is required,
and the Smartuner will operate with any HF
transceiver in the 1.6-30 MHz range and
output power from 3 to 200 watts.
S m a r t u n e r
®
automatically evaluates and
switches 64 input and 32 output capacitance
combinations, plus 256 inductance
combinations in a “pi” network—over a half-
million precision matches. Smartuner
®
t h e n
remembers the chosen frequency and tuning
values and automatically reselects those
values - in less than 10 ms, each time
you select that frequency.
Flexibility is a key Smartuner
®
feature.
It is available with a number of attractive
options, including a shock mount for
military and extreme applications, plus
a 24 VDC option.
For maximum range, clarity and
f l e x i b i l i t y, with just about any
HF-SSB, the SG-230 Smartuner
®
i s
your smartest choice.
