[Elecraft] KPA100 and EC2

[Jean-François Ménard]

The LDG Z-100 is really not as good as the KAT100. I experiment many RF
problems using this tuner at high power with my FT-817 with a 100W HF AMP.

Don't recommended for K2... It works, but KAT100 is greatly better IMHO.

I see from your excellent pictures that you also have a Z-100 tuner, which
is what I've been using with my K2 up to this point.  How would you compare
the matching ability of the KAT-100 with the Z-100?  I'm trying to decide
whether to build a KAT-100 but if it's about the same as the Z-100 I'll just
keep using that.

Thanks!
