If I listen to this band it receives strongest at 28.500 and drops off

Hi Barrett,

SWR change within that small a portion of frequency should not affect
receive to the degree you describe.

Is this how the Cobwebb performs or is there some thing wrong with it?


Is it pointed in the right direction? Can you manually tune it?
