AT-120

[BigKahuna]

Three questions

1. What will this actually tune? Some people say 1.6 - 30 but manual says 2-24? Can do 10 meters?

2. What is fair price used? One local for $100 offer $50-75?

3. I got old M600 at garage sale, will this work with the at-120? Going to hook up my in-law with equip.

Yes it will work on 10 meters, however this tuner is made to match with the Kenwood TS-120/130 transceivers or similar 100 watt SSB radio.
This tuner should not be used for AM or at any power level greater than 125 watt PEP, it also has a limited tuning range.
The're nice units but mainly used for light duty mobile use.
All the Best

Sorry wrong detail...
IC-M600 Marine xcvr will work with the tuner...However info I found states IC-M600 is Upper Side band only operation and not above.. 27 MHz..
Modification for lower SB is possible plus operation to 30 MHz but requires internal and software changes....
Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks Gary - I already have the m600 and it does all modes and has full coverage goes to 10 meter and cb as well. Are you saying the radio requires the modifications or the tuner? Or if the radio is already modded than it should work fine with tuner, no mods needed?
