This is part 2 of my Comet CAT-300 unboxing as i put the antenna tuner to work with my dipole antenna and IC7300. pls. share and like if this video helped you. 73! de DW2AWN/Amboy
Sir just asking...will an hf radio automatically lower down output power of the swr is high? For 100 watts it is only using 9 amps as registered in the power supply meter..ic 718 radio
Maverick Gunner hello. if you are using a tuner, after you have tuned your antenna, your output power will be decreased. the higher your swr is, the lower your output power will be after you have tuned it. this is because if you have a high swr reading your reflected power will also be high. your reflected power becomes heat on your antenna instead of rf power.
@@mrbelat how about po if mahina ang audio report sa akin ng kausap ko po? I already adjusted the mic gain..the compressor..etc...what might be the problem..im using stock mic hm 36
Maverick Gunner hello again. Nowadays, propagation is really bad. Kahit yong mga good audio sa akin dati pag bad ang propagation nagiging manipis ang audio nya. Try to compare your audio report during bad and good propagation. U should get a good audio report when band conditions are good.
If swr of the antenna is 1:3 or lower then no need to use a tuner. However if u plan to use the antenna on another band (hf band) where the antenna is not tuned to a desired working frequency a tuner is a must have.

I don't understand why the internal tuner on the ic-7300 is on when you are using the external comet.
the internal is very limited
Use one or the other tuners not both. This is why the ext tuner bands are wonky
Nice, I want one!
You need to turn off your Tuner from the 7300.
Nice review Amboy!
thanks Roy :)
Have you tried using it on 60m?
Ain’t it better to tune using FM? Also, the power needle needle is showing 50-60% of what’s set on the radio.
Where are you buy ?
On 40 meter you don't need a tuner with your specific antenna and look in the manual how to tune it to frequencies your antenna does not match.

@@mrbelat hi po. I will po. It might be also due to my antenna. Thank you for accomodating my questions. 73 de DV6WHY
if you use external turn off the internal
Is it not working on 11 meters ?
it should be able to tune antenna on 11 meter as long as swr of antenna is within tolerable range.
sir dou still need it even in pre-tuned Diamond antennas ? just curious...

@@mrbelat thank you so much sir... pls upload more videos about ham radio esp. for pinoys....more power to your station....73

@@Lowered_Gadh yes meron. i bought it from warren uy. you can check his store at eibradio.com
