It works

I've only had this for a short time so I can't give a full review, that said here are my first impressions.
I needed something that covered 6-meters and this does that. I normally run barefoot (100-Watts) and haven't used it with my amp so I don't know how it does at higher power levels but I've found that high power tuners are more efficient so I went with this. It is loud/clunky and is not fast when tuning for the first time but does jump to a previous tuning solution when changing bands - most of the time - sometimes after changing bands it just sits there and you have to press buttons to get it to tune.
This is not a remote tuner, which is what I wanted (I own 3 MFJ remote tuners and am very happy with them but none cover 6-meters). Here's the important thing to know - you can tune up just about any antenna system at the radio and get a good SWR *** BUT *** if your SWR at the antenna is not good and you have anything but a very short run of coax, then the losses in the coax will eat your signal (gets worse as the frequency goes up). So, don't expect this to fix your antenna.
BOTTOM LINE: I'm happy with it so far but would rather it have been a remote tuner (see above).

I've owned the 1000W Tuner before this one and have to say LDG has made it even smaller and more compact. Very happy with this tuner and it works great paired with a EFHW Antenna.
