tuner - feedline - antenna question ?
Thank you.
I think it may be a common mode problem. There is no choke on the dipole. I will bring it closer to resonance. - Dan kb0qil Richard Clark wrote: On Sun, 25 Feb 2007 07:14:54 -0800, dansawyeror wrote: resonates at about 7.7 MHz. On low power the tuner creates a very low SWR. according to the SWR Watt meter the system appears to transmit well over 200 watts. When it is transmitting the SWR reads about 1.1 to 1. Hi Dan, The Meter is either not as good as you claim it to be (it doesn't accurately perform at low power); OR you have common mode problems (classic). Do you choke the dipole? 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |
