Covers all bands from 80m up w/o any band switching, for QRP it can be built using polyvaricons, in effect the hard to find parts are the twin air variable capacitors

this ATU is easy to turn into a remote one since there's no band switching it's just a matter of using stepper motors or R/C servos to turn the variable capacitors plus a couple of relays for the hi/lo Z switching and for the ATU bypass (see second link above)
