Very straight forward instruction. I’ve always been fascinated with manual tuners. I will probably get one of these if I purchase an IC-705. If nothing else, this would make a valuable backup ATU to an auto-tuner.
Thanks for the instructional video, Joe. I use the ZM-2 with my SW-3B. Wish your video was about a year earlier - learned the trial and error way! Ed - K8DSS
Keeping the paddles together when turning on the radio to fool it into thinking it's a straight key is a neat trick. I'll have to try it. My usual strategy was to carry both a miniature straight key and paddles and swap them out after I used the straight key to tune.
This thing seems great… I have another Z match tuner that’s got a more restrictive tuning range, but is less expensive. On the emtech, I wish they would have shrunk the casing on this guy, which seems to be largely empty inside.

Thanks! I used it as my primary for a while then it became my backup once I got a T1.

LOL. Sorry Ed but you know, sometimes that's the best way to learn! 😀
Thanks! I have the ZM-2 ATU and this is the best quick demo of its use!
Glad you like it! I like when YT videos get to the point.

Glad it was helpful! One less thing to carry.

It's my favorite manual QRP tuner.
Thank you for the review Joe, excellent.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Now that MFJ is gone , we have limited choices! JohnBoyUtah KJ7TBR🇺🇸😎🎙📡
Yeah. I was hoping DX Engineering would acquire them. Too bad.
The choice of specialist tuners in the MFJ catalogue was VAST!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Antenna tuner.
Lol
Excellent detail and instructions.
Thanks,
