The Palstar is very well built,looks great, and it is very easy to use. I keep a sheet of my settings and am able to tune quickly . I even prefer this tuner to an Icom auto tuner I had. This is quick and quiet. I use this tuner with a Palomar Ft 340 so if I need to tweak I can do it off the air.

Also the sheet metal fabrication is supplied by the R.L Drake Co, say no more. And all the H.Q components are designed and built by Palstar. Operating the 6:1 precision venier dual stator capacitor is a delight, and the steatite ceramic core roller inductor is as light and as smooth to crank which is only found on high end tuners.
