Nope! I'm not one of those tuner-uppers! I have a non-radiating carbon
resistor immersed in a gallon of oil inside a metal enclosure.

I adjust my tuner with a whopping 0.02 watts from an MFJ 259B.

Darn INFERNAL Resistance! However it is possible to see the difference
caused by bias differences if you have an amplifier. Tune for maximum
output. Then reduce drive by 50%. You have to readjust the amplifier for
maximum output. [ Example there is a difference in tuning between 500
watts and 1000 watts output. ]

Hi Dave,

Are you one of those who whistles, hums, and recites the Gettysburg
Address into the mike while tuning up? Many on the band would offer
you as an example of Infernal Resistance. ;-)
