All of the quality and features that Hams worldwide have come to expect from Palstar are now available in these compact, lower-power, lower-priced AT-500 tuners.
Covering the 160 through 6 meter bands, AT-500s utilize only 2 controls to operate for tuning, providing for maximum ease of use, and a more compact manual tuner. These tuners feature a Vernier drive differential tuning split-stator capacitor and a smaller, precision ceramic body, crank handle roller inductor.

All of the quality and features that Hams worldwide have come to expect from Palstar are now available in these compact, lower-power, lower-priced AT-500 tuners.
Covering the 160 through 6 meter bands, AT-500s utilize only 2 controls to operate for tuning, providing for maximum ease of use, and a more compact manual tuner. These tuners feature a Vernier drive differential tuning split-stator capacitor and a smaller, precision ceramic body, crank handle roller inductor. This combination allows for operation on 6 meters, while a relay-switched add-on inductor allows for 160 meter tuning. Just like the big tuners, AT-500s offers the convenience of a 6-position mode switch for multiple antenna feedlines and an external dummy load.
AT-500 tuners also feature Palstar's active Peak and Peak Hold dual cross-needle metering found in our popular PM2000A wattmeter. They are made with an 11 ga. (0.090 in. thick) iridite-treated aluminum metalwork and durable powdercoated finish on the front panel and top cover.
Covered under a 1-year factory warranty, Palstar AT-500 tuners are ideal as an entry-level selection, if you want to buy a high-quality, American-made product.
