The Z-Match (Z stands for “impedance”) antenna tuner design is known for many years and has got numerous incarnations. This commercially available QRP Z-Match antenna tuner is based on an iron-powder toroid core T130-6. I have modded this tuner to be able to tune the open-air-line feeders, like in doublet antenna. It’s a 1 EUR/ USD worth of investment but it brings a huge advance for this tuner! It is my most favorite tuner in the shack now!
