Tuning is required for each frequency. Be sure to retune

the antenna before transmitting when you change the fre-

quency— even slightly.

(eg. IC-7000)

Set the desired frequency in an amateur band. q

 •The AH-4 will not operate on frequencies outside of ham

bands.

Hold down [TUNER/CALL] for 1 seconds. w

 •“ ” indicator appears while tuning.

Hold down [TUNER/CALL] for 1 second.

“ e ” indicator stays ON when tuning is complete.

 •Whentheantennacannotbetuned,“ ” indicator blinks,

and the AH-4 is bypassed and the antenna is directly connected

to the antenna connector on the transceiver.

To manually bypass the AH-4, push [TUNER/CALL]. r

INSTRUCTIONS

HF+50MHzAUTOMATICANTENNATUNER

AH-4

Thank you for purchasing the AH-4 HF + 50 MHz AU-

TOMATIC ANTENNA TUNER. The AH-4 matches your

transceiver to an antenna more than 7 m/23 ft long (3.5–

54MHz),ortheoptionalAH-2b(7–54MHz).

Please read these instructions thoroughly before installing

and operating the AH-4.

RNEVER operate this tuner without a solid ground. Always

connect the ground wire to the ground terminal. DO NOT use

the mounting plate as a ground terminal.

NEVERtransmitortunewithoutanantennaconnected.Fail-

ure to use an antenna will damage the tuner.

RHIGH VOLTAGE! NEVER touch the antenna while trans-

mitting or tuning. Place the antenna in a position where you

are sure it will not be touched.

DANGER!

45 FREQUENCY MEMORIES FOR FAST TUNING ❍

The LC combinations of 45 previously-used frequencies are auto-

maticallymemorized.Onceafrequencyismemorized,theAH-4

tunes on that frequency in less than 1 second. Note that the AH-4

doesnotmemorizeafrequencywhichisnormallytunedwithin2.5

seconds.Memoriesareretainedonlywhenthepowerison.

WEATHERPROOF DESIGN ❍

The AH-4’s tightly sealed plastic case allows convenient mount-

ing virtually anywhere. The AH-4 can be mounted outdoors under

your antenna.

Fig. 4 GROUND CONNECTIONS

The transceiver and antenna tuner must have an adequate

ground connection. Otherwise, the overall efficiency of the

transceiver and antenna tuner installation will be reduced.

Interference,RFfeedbackandelectricalshocksfromother

equipment could also occur.

Forbestresults,usetheheaviestgaugewireorstrapavail-

able, and make the connection as short as possible. (see

the illustration to the right)

•AlongwireconnectedtotheGNDterminalasacounterpoiseis

also acceptable.

connector if the transceiver has more than one.
