How much power is lost in an antenna tuner?
A 40m dipole exhibits a moderate impedance on 15m because it’s close to being 3/4 wavelength long; that keeps the losses in the coax manageable. But if you operated a 40m dipole on 20m you might expect about 10dB loss in 100ft of RG213 feedline and – depending on coax length – over 30% power lost in the tuner.
Do I need an antenna tuner with an amplifier?
Yes, you’ll need an external tuner, unless your antenna is already matched sufficiently well to 50 ohms. The objective of the tuner is to transform the impedance seen by some signal source, like your radio, or the amplifier. The amplifier will already be designed to have a 50 ohm input.
