This Icom 746 can tune almost anything, I got it to tune my #EFHW8010 for #160m / #FT8 (which is surprising, consider I sometimes have trouble tuning #40m and #80m with it, heh, probably because I had to splice it back together at some point and probably lost a little bit in length)

I've heard the phrase, "my tuner could tune a coat hanger"

I might need to try that 😂 with this, lol

#HamRadio

whoa, I made my first contact on #160m 😮

my antenna is only an #EFHW8010 but I turned down to 160m and tried to see if the beast of the Icom 746 could tune it, and surprisingly it got the SWR less than 2:1, heh

though, I don't think the radio likes it, because after transmitting the tuner feature turns of

anyways, enough of that, at least I was able to make one #FT8 contact on 160m 🙂

(also, I'm awake way too early, lol)

my Icom 746's built in tuner works better on tuning up my #EFHW8010 for #30m than my #MFJ949E was previously doing 👀

interesting!
