RE: See TIC article about it - Thanks Tim

Posted by Jeff Starr on August 6, 2016 at 21:29:06:

I am aware of TIC, but didn't think to take a look.

I am getting the 23 for the cost of shipping. It was a refurbished unit with one owner. He says it works fine.

Like I said, many years ago I was looking for second tuner and I tried to buy one. That was before the quality issues surfaced.

The CT400 I bought off of eBay for very little. I also had a Nikko I bought on a whim, I gave it to a friend.

As to antennas, you gave me some advice with my MD Etude, I solved that with a long single [no splices/couplers] coax to a back room. Now no multipath or noise issues. The CT400 brings in all my stations with a simple dipole.

If the 23 is a bust, I'll lose very little time or money. And I know there are better vintage tuners out there. I wasn't shopping for a tuner, this just came up. I committed before doing any research. It wouldn't be the first boat anchor, I have ever owned.

Thanks for the link.
