Alpha Delta
PathFinder
Automatic Tuner

Discontinued

The Alpha Delta PathFinder provides continuous coverage tuning from 1.8 thru 30 MHz plus 6 meters. As a result, it is ideal for amateur radio as well as MARS, CAP and commercial-government uses. It runs under microprocessor control with an average tuning time of 3 to 4 seconds--automatically. The digital readout is a precision multi-function bar graph/numerical display that simultaneously reads RF watts (5 thru 200 watts), peak and average, VSWR and all tuner functions. The digital meter provides 5% accuracy plus 1 digit of any reading, not just full scale. Front panel pushbutton switched outputs for coax, long wire or balanced line antennas--using a custom designed built-in balun. Select between 2 coax or 1 coax and 1 long wire/balanced type antenna.

Will match a wide variety of antennas. 200 watt power rating on HF and 100 watts on 6 meters with 50% duty cycle. In addition to the digital readout, audio beep responses for SWR and various functions are provided for the visually impaired. Requires 12 VDC at 1 amp. 7.5 x 2.5 x 11 in. 5.5 Lbs.
