SG-237

This antenna coupler has quickly become a very popular, low cost antenna coupler for all applications.  It is ideal for use with most amateur transceivers.  And, at 1/5th the size of a SG-230, finding a mounting location is much easier.

Priced less than the SG-230, the SG-237 is the economical alternative to SGC's famous SG-230 Antenna Tuner/Coupler.

Its frequency range extends to 60 MHz, and it is rated at 100 Watts maximum input.  (It should not be used with 150 watt output, marine transceivers.)
