Thanks for the lessons. I use forte Agent but just happened to be on
another computer and needed to post in a hurry.

Any chance my problem could be explored further? I have now also ruled
out the line isolator as a problem.

Actually, my response was to helmsman--your post wraps fine in my
thunderbird ... I was pointing that out to him.

I would strongly suspect the "line isolator", yes. But, first would
have some questions--I would think other here too would similar questions.

1) What are you calling a "line isolator", a 1:1 current balun?

2) Is the balun of ferrite design?

3) Toroid or bar material?

4) Is this "line isolator" a commercial product, or did you construct it
yourself?

5) What is the power handling capability of "the device?" Did you ever
run a KW or more into it?

6) The device IS constructed for xmitting, right?

7) ... probably more stuff not right on the tip of my tongue ...
