## Overview

The QRP Z-Match Manual Antenna Tuner is a compact, high-efficiency device designed for HAM radio enthusiasts operating between 3-28 MHz. Rated for 5W continuous power and featuring a wide impedance matching range (25-2500 Ω), it supports various antenna types with precision tuning via manual capacitors and an LED standing wave indicator. Its rugged metal build and small footprint make it ideal for portable and outdoor use, ensuring reliable performance for QRP operators seeking superior signal clarity and adaptability.

## Description

Z-match manual tune:●Power: rated power 5W, intermittent power 10W;●Net weight: 250g;●Size: 88* 83*38mm, excluding protruding parts;●Connector: BNC;●Matching impedance range: 25 to 2500 ohms;●Frequency: 3-28 MHz.Shipping list:●QRP Z-match finished machine*1●User manual*1How to useThe front panel switch is used to select the mode. When it is in the TUNE position, the standing wave indicator circuit is accessed. When the transmitter is transmitting, the brighter the LED, the higher the standing wave. Two capacitor controls are used to adjust the matching. The rear switch sets the antenna impedance.Note: Standing wave indicator LED.Note: It is essential to check the standing wave before transmitting, otherwise the ORP transmitter without high standing wave protection may burn out.Note: If quick tuning is not possible, use a network analyser for debugging. At this stage the mode switch should be set to WORK.Note: This tuner is for ORP only. Excessive power can cause components to burn out.

Review: Great Little Tuner - I’ve used this several times and at home and on a couple of POTA activations. Worked great with a couple of different random wire antennas. Small size is easily packed. Easy to tune. See photo of it, QRP Labs QDX, & mouse for scale
Review: Works for me on CB - I don’t know how well this works with the ham bands. However it works great with my homemade Cb whip. I built it with a 1:1 set at channel 19 and always had trouble getting picked up while dxing 38lsb. Since setting this up I’ve easily made contacts in Hawaii, Tennessee, Minnesota, and Ohio from Washington state with a stock President McKinley radio. I opened it up before I put it in my truck to make sure all the solder joints were good and they were.

## Features

- Compatible with a wide range of coaxial fed, long wire and balanced line antennas, such as high impedance, low loss UHF twin-lead or 40m-10m ladder line.
- Rated at 5 watts continuous, 10 watts intermittent and supplied with BNC connectors for input/output.
- Metal housing, fine workmanship, small and exquisite, which is a great help for tough outdoor use.
- A well designed Z-match tuner has a high Q and is more efficient (less lossy) than other types of tuners.
- Note: This tuner is only suitable for ORP. Too much power can burn out components.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little tuner! Buy it! You'll like it!
*by W***K on June 29, 2025*

This is the perfect little manual tuner for your QRP setup! It's as tall and as wide as the USDX+ QRP radio, and works like a champ! I was working stations two states away on 40 and 80 meters on a homemade NVIS antenna on only 5 watts!
