The LDG AT-897 is a microprocessor controlled automatic antenna tuner, designed for use with the popular Yaesu FT-897. It has an incredible tuning range of 6-800 Ohms, and bolts to the side of the radio, just like the Yaesu tuner. It gets power from the radio's CAT port, and has an additional CAT port, so another CAT device can be attached. The tuner uses very little current, and since it uses latching relays, it can even be turned off after tuning is completed-great for battery powered operation. Supplied fully assembled and tested, with power cable and radio interface cable.
