Re the AT 500 tuner. If you use the existing SO-239's on the back of the
tuner, you have 5 bandswitched ports for the 5 bands. IF you pull the serial
number plate you will find a prepunched hole exactly 239 sized. You can
install a 6th 239 there and wire it to the common feed thus letting you use
for instance a 160 mtr off center fed dipole on all bands from 160 to 6
(bever tried 2)  with the tuner matching anywhere you want to go.
