My 16Ø dipole (1Ø5 each leg and 75ft twin lead) wont tune 3Ø with auto
tuner on rig. Its fine on the other low bands I want to work (40/80/160)

Anyone know a way to help it tune ???? It tries and even finds a low SWR
of about 1.1 - 1 but then goes off into the sunset detunes and times
out.


Does it have a halt or stop button so you can make it stop where the low
SWR occurs? If so, have you tried that?
