The transmitter may have an output RF power up to 200 watts. For best results, the random wire should be as long, high, and clear of surrounding objects as possible. \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eDo not ground the random wire antenna.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe connectors\u003c\/strong\u003e are labeled properly to match a transmitter to a higher\u003cbr\u003eimpedance. This is the normal connection. To match impedances that are lower than your transmitter impedance (such as a mobile whip), simply interchange the normal transmitter and antenna connections to the MFJ-16010.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemember the MFJ-16010 is designed to match a single random wire\u003c\/strong\u003e and not a\u003cbr\u003ecoaxial line, even though coaxial connectors are used for both antenna and\u003cbr\u003etransmitter connections (these connectors make it easy to interchange antenna\u003cbr\u003eand transmitter connections).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA standard banana plug\u003c\/strong\u003e will fit nicely into the center of the SO-239 coaxial\u003cbr\u003econnector and can be used to connect the single random wire in lieu of a\u003cbr\u003ecoaxial plug (PL-239).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA standard coaxial cable\u003c\/strong\u003e having an impedance that matches your transmitter\u003cbr\u003eoutput impedance, should be used to connect your transmitter to the\u003cbr\u003eMFJ-16010 Random Wire Antenna Tuner.
