The updated design for the capacitors features lower minimum capacitance for improved high band performance, while maximum capacitance has been increased to 400pF for better low band performance. The AT-2K matches dipoles, center fed doublets, Verticals, end-fed wire, delta loops, beams, Windom&#8217;s, Inverted V&#8217;s and an optional external 4:1 or 1:1 current balun for balanced wire feeders can be purchased during check-out. Featuring a 6 position antenna selector switch, the AT-2K offers forward power metering in two ranges, 300 and 3000 watts.<\/p>\n<p>Also included is Palstar&#8217;s Active Peak and Peak Hold dual cross-needle metering from the popular PM-2000A wattmeter. Standing Wave Ratio measurements are displayed with an illuminated cross-needle meter. SWR is read directly from the meter face where the Forward and Reverse needles cross. Add 11 Ga.
