Introducing the new BT1500BAL tuner
The word is spreading about Palstar’s unique, high-end products. Carrying on in the Palstar tradition for high quality, affordable products designed by Hams for Hams the American made BT1500BAL tuner is no exception.


The BT1500BAL is a dual-roller balanced L antenna tuner that fills the void for a matching network up to 1500 watts pep for balanced line antennas. For ease of use the BT1500BAL utilizes only 2 controls to operate for tuning with two direct-coupled precision ceramic roller inductors. As on all Palstar tuners the front panel and top cover are powdercoated.
