◇ This tuner is a special model for Yaesu transmitters. We will try to make it match

INTRODUCTION

mAT-Y200 is specially designed for Yaesu brand transmitters with RF power not higher than
200W , such as FT-891, FT-991A, FTDX10, FTDX101D, FTDX101MP. It should be noted
(SSB)
that, it cannot be used for FTDX5000 and FT-2000, because these transmitters do not have
a standard 8-pin Yaesu tuner interface. For FTDX-101MP transmitter, when using external
tuner, it will automatically set the maximum RF power to 100W, so when using this tuner,
the maximum output RF power is 100W. The FT-817/818 transmitter also cannot use this
tuner, if you happen to use this transmitter, please choose the mAT-10 tuner, which is
specially designed for FT-817/818.
This tuner is also a great choice for users who like to operate the transmitter in digital
modes such as FT8, CW and RTTY. For most tuners, it is not possible to withstand 100 watts
of digital mode RF signals entering the tuner. The mAT-Y200 allows up to 100 watts of
digital mode RF signals to pass through the tuner.
