Antenna tuner
An antenna tuner is a device that helps match the electrical impedance between a radio transmitter and its antenna, ensuring efficient power transfer. By adjusting its internal components, it optimizes the connection, reducing reflected power and signal loss. This improves the clarity and strength of radio communications, especially when using antennas that are not perfectly suited to a specific frequency. Essentially, an antenna tuner acts like a translator, ensuring the radio and antenna "speak" the same language for better performance without physically changing the antenna.
