ICOM AH-4 HF+50MHz Automatic Antenna Tuner
The Icom AH-4 is an automatic antenna tuner designed for use with a 7-meter (23-foot) or longer wire antenna. Here are the key specifications:
- Frequency Coverage: It operates from 3.5 MHz to 54 MHz with a long wire antenna of 7 meters (23 feet) or longer. When used with an optional AH-2b, it covers 7 MHz to 54 MHz.
- Maximum Input Power: It can handle up to 120 watts PEP.
- Input Impedance: The tuner has an input impedance of 50 ohms.
- Power Supply Requirement: It requires 13.8 V DC (negative ground) with a current drain of less than 1 amp.
- Auto Tuning Accuracy: The AH-4 achieves a VSWR of 2.0:1 or less and tunes in approximately 2 to 3 seconds (maximum 15 seconds).
- Number of Memory Channels: It has 45 memory channels.
The AH-4 is a remote, automatic, weather-resistant antenna tuner suitable for HF/50 MHz operation. It also features a PTT function for band-changing. For 3.5 MHz operation, it requires a wire and ground plane. Whether you’re an experienced operator or a newcomer, the AH-4 can enhance your antenna system’s performance.
Please note that the AH-4 is a versatile tuner that can work with various wire antennas, making it a valuable addition to your amateur radio setup. 📻🔗
