No, I did. Forgot that tuner is tailored to the 817/818 series. LDG have some others that are rugged & light that will take up to 100w and that's where you want to point your sights. Find the form-factor you want & check QRZ.com; this stuff turns over used all the time. Hams change their gear almost as fast as AR-cloners change their furniture.

Especially in your neck of the woods SOTA would be fun. Most of those folks are real polite and give honest sig reports.
