Thanks for the reply. I did get on the internet and found the mk4 book.
It
seems there is a setting about halfway between the phone and cw segments.
I
guess the mk3 could be set that way also. I think I am going to try that
in
about a year when I move and get a tower back up. 73 de KU4PT

Ralph,
I think I have mine set on the compromise setting. I measured the SWR with
an MFJ269 at the base of the tower. Feedline is about 50 feet of RG8FOAM. I
get

14.07 MHz SWR=1.5
14.175 1.1
14.225 1.2
14.300 1.7
14.350 2.6
Virtually all of my operation is between 14.175 and 14.250.
