Hi Richard
I have turned it by hand, there is some difference in signal but not much.
The Ariel is 20ft off the ground,, the same as the G5RV.
It doesn't seem to be working right. But I'm not sure how the original
worked.

Thanks

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?
