R-7000 in the rain
Hi,
When it rains the VSWR of my Cushcraft R7000 rises (10:1) on all bands. It is about 1.5:1 when dry. Has anyone an idea? TNX in advance. 73's Daniel, FY1FV |

I'm reluctant to state the obvious. Dunno what an R7000 is, but if you have a balun or loading coils or traps, is rain water getting into one or other of them ? Looks like you'll have to find a ladder. ---- Reg. |

Also, are the traps installed upside down?/
