NOTICE: In July 2021 the channel name changed from HamCuredSmoke
To Ham Radio A2Z. All of the earlier videos (like this one) are still available.
This time we will look at connecting an external antenna tuner to the 7100. In the video I use an MFJ-939I, but a number of other "made for Icom" tuners will connect and operate in a very similar manner.
You can check out the companion website for the channel at:

Manual pages that were covered/referenced in the Advanced Instructions:
17-20 Tuner Set Functions
Section 16 - Antenna Tuner Operation
Here are links to a couple tuners from the manufacturer's websites:
