Where possible, all links are affiliate links, this youtube thing is an expensive endeavor and every little bit helps.

In this video, I take a look at the N7DDC ATU-100 Automatic Antenna Tuner, preassembled by GooZeeZoo. This compact, affordable, and open-source tuner is a great addition to any ham radio shack. Join me as I unbox the unit, walk through its features, test its performance with different antennas, and explain how it works.

👉 Perfect for QRP and portable operations, the ATU-100 is a reliable HF tuner with automatic tuning capabilities. It supports 0.1–30 MHz, handles up to 100 watts, and is based on the open-source firmware by N7DDC.

🔧 I cover:
🖍️ What’s inside the GooZeeZoo ATU-100
🖍️ How it performs in real-world use
🖍️ Menu functions and display walk-through
🖍️ Tuning results with various antennas

Join me, Steve (KM9G), as I dive into the world of 9:1 ununs with an unconventional core! My friend Ziggy sent over a minty green toroid, and we’re testing whether it holds up against the traditional cores used in ham radio builds.

🔍 What You’ll Learn in This Video:
✅ The science behind 9:1 ununs and core selection
✅ How different toroids impact performance
✅ A real-world antenna test in the rain 🌧️
✅ SWR results across multiple bands
✅ LIVE FT8 contacts—including a 5W QRP DX to St. Helena!

🚀 Can you really make a 9:1 work with any core? Let’s experiment and find out!
