Antenna tuners do not make antennas work better, they simply help the 
rig provide power to the feedline by matching the feedline to the rig. 
If the tuner is getting you below 2:1 for the antennas you use, the only 
thing a different tuner will do is transfer money from your pocket to 
someone else's.
